Camera recording
Notes on LP mode
•We recommend to use this camcorder to play back a tape recorded on this camcorder. If a tape recorded on other camcorder is played back on this camcorder, or vice versa, mosaic- pattern noise may appear.
•When you record in SP and LP modes on one tape or you record some scenes in LP mode, the playback picture may be distorted or the time code may not be written properly between scenes.
•We recommend to use a Sony ME cassette. •You cannot make audio dubbing on a tape
recorded in LP mode. Use the SP mode for the tape to be audio dubbed.
Notes on the time code
•The time code indicates the recording or playback time, "0:00:00" (hours : minutes : seconds) in CAMERA mode and "0:00:00:00" (hours : minutes : seconds : frames) in PLAYER mode.
•Be sure not make a blank portion when recording, because the time code will start from “0:00:00:00” again. You cannot rewrite the time code on the tape if there is a blank portion between pictures.
Note on connecting an external microphone You can record audio sound by connecting the
Note on the beep sound
As indicated with 
in the illustrations, a beep sounds when you turn the power on or when you start recording, and two beeps sound when you stop recording, confirming the operation. Several beeps also sound as a warning of any unusual condition of the camcorder.
Note that the beep sound is not recorded on the tape. If you do not want to hear the beep sound, select “OFF” in the menu system.
Note on remaining tape indicator
The indicator may not be displayed accurately depending on the tape. Though the indicator does not appear at the time of recording, it will appear in a few seconds.
