Note on REC MODE
When you record on the standard 8 tape, your camcorder records in the SP mode even you
select the LP mode in the menu settings. In this case, the indicator “8mm TAPE
t
SP REC, Hi8
TAPE
t
LP/SP REC” appears on the screen. Use the Hi8
tapes for the LP mode.
Notes on the LP mode
•When you record a tape in the LP mode on your camcorder, we recommend playing the tape on
your camcorder. When you play back the tape on other camcorders or VCRs, noise may occur in
images or sound.
•When you record in the SP and LP modes on one tape or you record some scenes in the LP
mode, the playback image may be distorted or the time code may not be written properly
between scenes.
Note on AUDIO MODE
When playing back a tape recorded in the 16-bit mode, you cannot adjust the balance in AUDIO
MIX.
*To dub a tape to another VCR
You cannot select AUDIO MODE for tapes recorded in the Digital8 system. You, however, can
select AUDIO MODE when you dub tapes recorded in the Hi8/standard 8 system to another VCR
using the i.LINK cable.
