Tracking

During playback, streaks may appear in the playback picture. Press either TRACKING button to move the streaks up or down and out of the picture.

During stop-action playback, pressing one TRACKING button may reduce picture “jitter” (picture bouncing up and down). Some “jitter” is normal.

Simultaneously press both TRACKING buttons to return tracking to its preset center.

Note: The TRACKING buttons may have no effect on tapes recorded on other camcorders or VCRs.
