Set depending on your preference.
1 Set the Power Switch to “AUTO” or “PRO.”. Press SP/ EP for more than 1 second. “SP” (Standard Play) provides higher picture and sound quality and is better for dubbing, while “EP” (Extended Play) is more economical, providing three times the recording time.
NOTE:
If the recording mode is switched during recording, the playback picture will be blurred at the switching point.
