Notes and Hints
ª
Concerning the Power Supply
≥
When the Camcorder is used for a long time,
the Camera body becomes warm, but this is not
a malfunction.
≥
If the [CHARGE] Lamp does not light up
although the Battery is attached to the AC
Adaptor, detach the Battery and reattach it.
ª
Inserting/Removing the Cassette
≥
In the case of using a previously recorded
Cassette, you can use the Blank Search
Function to find the position where you want to
continue recording.
≥
If a new Cassette is inserted, rewind to the
beginning of the tape before starting recording.
≥
When inserting the cassette, make sure it faces
in the right direction and then push it in until it
stops.
≥
When the Cassette Holder is in action, do not
touch anything except the [PUSH] Button.
≥
When closing the Cassette Compartment
Cover, do not get anything caught in the cover,
such as a cable of an optional stereo
microphone.

images will be distorted.
ª
Recording on a Card

When the color of the screen changes or blurs,
adjust the shutter speed manually to 1/60 or
1/100.

a playback image depending on the image
content.

It may not be possible to play back a mega-pixel
still-picture recorded by this Camcorder with
another Camcorder.

behind the subject in the focus area, the subject

high-contrast object out of the focus area.
(PV-GS200 only)
To record still pictures clearly
≥
When zooming in on the subject with
magnification of
k
4 to
k
10 or higher, it is
difficult to reduce slight jitters when holding the
Camcorder by hand. We recommend
decreasing the zoom magnification and
approaching the subject when recording.
≥
When recording still pictures, hold the
Camcorder firmly with your hands and keep
arms stationary at your side to ensure you do
not shake the Camcorder.
≥
You can record stable pictures without jitters
using a tripod and the remote controller.
About the Shutter Chance Mark (PV-GS200
only)
≥
The Shutter Chance Mark does not appear in
manual focus mode.
≥
When the subject is not easily focused, focus on
the subject manually.
