ProEdit Features

ProEdit® System

• Flying Erase Head

• Edit Search

• Titler

The camcorder incorporates a complete package of advanced editing features to make it easy and fun to edit your home videos like a professional. The major ProEdit® System features are described here and on the following pages.

Flying Erase Head

A separate erase head is mounted on the spinning headwheel (hence the term “flying”). The flying erase head allows you to make clean edits without “glitches” or “rainbow noise”.

Edit Search

The edit-search feature allows you to edit as you make your recording by using F.FWD, REW, and PLAY to precisely position the tape while the camcorder is in record pause.

•Press and hold REW (rewind) to visually search the recorded tape in reverse.

•Press and hold F.FWD (fast forward) to visually search forward on the recorded tape.

•Press and hold PLAY to view the recorded tape at normal speed.

When you release the button, the camcorder will return to record pause at that point on the tape.
