I can’t hear any sound
from the camera-
recorder’s speaker.
•
Have you turned down the camera-recorder’s volume control too
far?
In the VCR mode, adjust the volume level using the multi dial.
P44
I can hear two sets of
sound.
•
Have you selected “MIX” as the 32K (12bit) AUDIO item setting on
the PLAYBACK FUNCTION screen?
•
If you perform audio dubbing on a tape that was recorded with “32K
(12bit)” selected as the AUDIO REC item setting on the RECORD-
ING SETUP screen, you will hear the sound heard during recording
and that of the audio dubbing.
P69
When I performed audio
dubbing on an existing
recording, the original
sound was erased.
•
If you perform audio dubbing on a tape that was recorded with “48K
(16bit)” selected as the AUDIO REC item setting on the RECORD-
ING SETUP screen, you will erase the original sound on the tape.
To leave the original sound intact, make sure that “32K (12bit)” is
selected as the item setting when you shoot the original recording.
I can’t remove the cas-
sette tape.
•
Is power still being supplied to the camera-recorder? (Is the power
from the AC adapter and battery supplied properly?)
So long as the power is supplied, you can remove the cassette
even if the POWER lever is at the OFF position.
–––
I can remove the cassette
but I can’t perform any
other operations.
•
Has condensation formed?
If it forms, the only operation you can perform is to remove the cas-
sette. Wait until the condensation has dried out.
•
If the cassette cover is closed immediately after sliding the EJECT
switch to open the cassette cover, you may no longer be able to
perform any operations other than eject. If you did this, slide the
EJECT switch again to open the cassette cover, check that the cas-
sette mechanism has finished ejecting the cassette, and then close
the cassette cover.
–––
The remote control unit
does not work.
•
Has the button battery in the remote control unit run out?
If the remote control fails to work even when it is operated near the
camera-recorder’s remote control sensor, it means that the button
battery has run out. Replace it with a new one.
•
Is the remote control setting the same for the remote control unit
and the camera-recorder?
If the REMOTE item setting does not correspond between the two
units, the remote control unit will not work.
I hear a rattling sound
when I tilt the camera-
recorder back and forth.
•
There are some parts in the structure of the camera unit that make
a rattling sound in the VCR mode or when the POWER lever is at
the OFF position. This is not a sign that something is broken.
