Playback Features

Stop-Action Pause

•During playback, press the thumb trigger (PAUSE/RECORD on remote) to “stop the action” and view one frame of the tape.

Caution: Pause is designed for momentary interruptions and should not be used for an extended period of time. If the camcorder remains in pause for more than five minutes, it will move the tape away from the spinning heads to prevent excessive tape wear.

•Press the thumb trigger

(PAUSE/RECORD on remote) again to return to normal playback.

Visual Searching

•During playback, press and hold F.F (F.FWD on remote) or REW if you want to visually search the tape in forward or reverse.

•Release the button to return to normal playback.

Notes: During pause and search operations, it is normal for streaks to appear in the picture.

The sound is muted during special playback operations.
