Fade/Wipe Effects

These effects let you make professional-looking scene transitions. Fade-ins or wipe-ins work at recording start, and fade-outs or wipe-outs work at recording end.

2.Press FADE/WIPE repeatedly until the desired mode’s name and icon appear. (They are displayed for approximately 2 seconds, then the name disappears so that only the icon remains.)

3.Press the Recording Start/Stop button to activate fade-in/out or wipe-in/out.

4.To cancel a fade or wipe, press FADE/WIPE repeatedly until OFF appears. (OFF is displayed for approximately 2 seconds and the fade/wipe standby mode is cancelled.)
