Basic Recording

You should already have performed the necessary preparations (pgs. 8 – 16). Set the shooting mode selector to "AUTO" and try recording that way before attempting to use more advanced features.

NOTE:

Before starting recording, make sure you set the date and time (pg. 12). Even if they don’t appear during recording, you can display them during playback (pg. 55).

NOTES:

If 5 minutes elapse in the Record-Standby mode, power shuts off automatically to conserve energy and protect the heads. To turn the camcorder on again, set the Power Dial to “OFF”, then to “REC”. As long as you don’t take out the tape you were using or play it back, you can continue from where you left off with no noticeable brake on the recorded video.

When a blank portion is left between recorded scenes on the tape, the time code is interrupted and errors may occur

when editing the tape. Continue recording from where you stop so there are no gaps by following "Recording from the middle of a tape" (pg. 20).

Recored/Standby means that a tape is loaded and the camcorder is ready to record.

During recording, sound is not heard from the speaker. If you want to hear the sound, connect optional headphones to the headphones jack.

The sun hood should be used when under direct sunlight.
