Insert Editing

You can record a new scene onto a previously recorded tape, replacing a section of the original recording with minimal picture distortion at the in- and out-points. The original audio remains unchanged.

NOTE:

1 Set the Power Switch to “PLAY”.

2 Play back the tape, locate the Edit-Out point and press PAUSE.

3 Press and hold COUNTER R/M on the camcorder for more than 1 second to reset the tape counter, then press again for less than 1 second so that “M” appears.

4 Press REW to go a little beyond the beginning of the scene you want to replace, press PLAY to view the recorded tape, and press PAUSE exactly at the Edit-In point where the new scene should start.

5 Press and hold INSERT, and without releasing INSERT, press and release PAUSE. The Insert Editing indicator appears and the Insert Editing mode is engaged. When the scene the camcorder is aimed at appears on the screen, go to the next step.
