It is very important to adjust the hand strap correctly to
ensure the camera can be held steady. (see page 16)

Do not insert your hand in the hand strap forcibly,
as it may result in damage to the buckle.

To ensure normal recording and clear pictures, ensure that the heads are kept clean.
When playing back the pictures, if they are noisy or hardly visible, the video heads may be dirty.
If this happens, clean the video heads with a dry type cassette cleaner.

Do not use a wet type cassette cleaner. It may damage the video heads. (see page 55)
