Recording yourself

monitor. You can record persons in front of the
Camcorder while presenting them the image. The

image. (However the image to be recorded is not
altered.)

The MagicPix function makes the signal
charging time of the CCD up to approximately
30
k
longer than usual, so that dark scenes (a
minimum of 2 lx) can be recorded brightly. For
this reason, bright dots that are usually invisible
may be seen, but this is not a malfunction.
≥
The MagicPix function is canceled when you
turn off the power or operate the mode dial.
