NOTES:

If the Record-Standby mode continues for 5 minutes, the camcorder’s power shuts off automatically. To turn the camcorder on again, push back and pull out the viewfinder again or close and re-open the LCD monitor.

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. To avoid this, refer to “Recording From The Middle Of A Tape” ( pg. 17).

To turn the tally lamp or beep sounds off,  pg. 27, 29.

NOTES:

The image will not appear simultaneously on the LCD monitor and the viewfinder except during Interface Shooting. ( pg. 16) When the viewfinder is pulled out while the LCD monitor is opened, you can select which one to use. Set “PRIORITY” to the desired mode in SYSTEM Menu. ( pg. 27, 29)

Coloured bright spots may appear all over the LCD monitor or the viewfinder. However, this is not a malfunction.
