STOP RECORDING
Press the Recording Start/Stop Button again to stop
recording.
•The camcorder re-enters the Record-Standby mode.
NOTES:
●
When the Power Switch is set to “CAMERA” and the
LCD monitor is opened at an angle of 60 degrees or
more, the LCD monitor switches on and the viewfinder
switches off automatically to save power.
●
The cassette holder cannot be opened unless a power
supply is attached.
●
There may be a delay after you slide EJECT until the
holder opens. Do not use force.
●
The tape remaining time is only displayed in the
viewfinder as shown.
●
The remaining time indicated in the viewfinder is
approximate.
●
The time required to calculate the remaining tape
length, and the accuracy of the calculation, may vary
according to the type of tape used.
●
The tape remaining time indicator is correct only if the
correct tape length has been selected (
Z
pg. 12).
●
“TAPE END” appears when the tape reaches its end, and
the power goes off automatically if left in this condition
for 5 minutes. “TAPE END” also appears when a cassette
whose tape is already at its end is loaded.
●
If the Record–Standby mode continues for 5 minutes
without performing Zoom or any other operations, the
camcorder’s power shuts off automatically. Set the
Power Switch to “POWER OFF”, and then back to
“CAMERA” to turn the camcorder on again.
●
If the Recording Start/Stop button is pressed after the
Record-Standby mode has continued for over
5 minutes, recording may not start immediately.
●
If you are recording on a cassette from the middle (such
as when a tape is removed and re-inserted during
recording), use the Retake function (
Z
pg. 27) to find
the end of the last recording so you don’t erase any of it.
●
The LENS COVER warning blinks for about 5 seconds
when the camcorder is turned on with the cover closed.
●
While shooting, sound is not heard from the speaker.
●
To turn the tally lamp off during recording, refer to pgs.
34 and 36.
