RECORDING 
Once you select a record format, all you need to do 
is press the red record button—one is located with 
the power switch on the back of the camera, while 
the other is toward the front of the camera on the 
handle. To use the record button on the handle, 
move the REC selector switch on the side of the handle from OFF to ON.

NOTE: If you do not select a record format, the camera will default to the last 
user’s record settings.

PLAYING CLIPS 
To view clips on the camera, press the MODE but-
ton (located to the left of the battery compartment) 
to switch from CAM (camera) to PB (playback).

All clips recorded on the card display in the LCD 
monitor. Use the operation lever to navigate to the 
clip to view—push in the lever to play the clip.

DELETING CLIPS
After viewing your recorded footage, you can delete 
any clips you don’t want to use. While still in PB 
mode, press the MENU button. Scroll down and se-
lect OPERATION in the PB menu. Select DELETE.

At this point, you can delete all unprotected clips 
on the card or selected clips only. If you delete ALL 
CLIPS
, select YES when prompted by “ALL CLIPS 
DELETE?
”. 

If you delete SELECT clips, all recorded clips display 
on the LCD monitor. After pressing the EXECUTE 
button, SELECT THE CLIP TO BE DELETED appears and all the clips display 
again. Select the clips to be deleted using the operation lever—an orange 
border
 appears inside the yellow when properly selected. Press EXECUTE 
again, and then select YES when prompted. When you’re done deleting clips, 
press the MENU button to exit.

Safety zone setup
While you only 
shoot in 16:9 for 
HD, you can set up 
an overlay for your 
LCD monitor to 
ensure what you re-
cord can be seen on 
a standard 4:3 TV.

In CAM mode, press 
the MENU button. 
Using the opera-
tion lever, move to 
DISPLAY SETUP 
(screen 2/3); pull 
the lever toward 
you to select.

Go to SAFETY 
ZONE
 next. The 
selections are 90%, 
4:3, and OFF—90% 
sets up a safety 
overlay for 90% of 
the TVs used, 4:3 
for a 4:3 TV, and 
OFF if you aren’t 
concerned viewers 
can see your full 
picture.

safe!
