Notes and Hints

ªConcerning the Power Supply

When the Movie Camera is used for a long time, the Camera body becomes warm, but this is not a malfunction.

If the [CHARGE] Lamp does not light up although the Battery is attached to AC Adaptor, detach the Battery and reattach it.

Battery CGP-D110 and CGP-D105 cannot be charged with this AC Adaptor.

ªInserting/Removing the Cassette

In the case of using a previously recorded Cassette, you can use the Camera Search Function to find the position where you want to continue recording.

If a new Cassette is inserted, rewind to the beginning of the tape before starting recording.

When inserting the cassette, make sure it faces in the right direction and then push it in until it stops.

When opening or closing the Cassette Compartment, push down the buckle of the Grip Belt so that it does not obstruct the opening and closing of the Cassette Compartment.

ªAlarm Sounds

When [BEEP SOUND] on the [OTHER FUNCTIONS] Sub-Menu on the [CAMERA FUNCTIONS] Main-Menu is set to [ON], confirmation/alarm beeps are issued as follows.

1 Beep

When you start recording

When you switch the [OFF/ON/MODE] Switch from [OFF] to [ON]

2 Beeps

When you pause recording 10 Beeps

If you perform a wrong operation before or during recording

ªRecording

Before turning on the power, remove the Lens Cap. If the Lens Cap is still attached when the power is turned [ON], Automatic White Balance Adjustment (l50) may not function correctly.

ªRecording Check

For Recording Check, the recording speed mode (SP/LP) must be the same as the mode used for the recording. If different, playback images will be distorted.

ªCamera Search

In Camera Search Mode, images may contain mosaic-pattern noise. This is a phenomenon that is characteristic of digital video and not a malfunction.

If the recording speed modes (SP/LP) of previous recording and new recording are different, playback images may be distorted.

ªPhotoshot

Photoshot Recording results in slightly inferior image quality.

ªProgressive Photoshot Function

The still pictures are recorded at a slightly rewound point from where you press the [PHOTO SHOT] Button.

When you change to the Still Picture Mode, you will hear a click. This is the sound of the iris closing and not an indication of malfunction.

If you record still pictures in Progressive Photoshot Mode

when your Movie Camera is set to Programme AE (l22), the brightness of the images may change.

About [PROGRESSIVE] Setup

When the [æ] Indication is displayed, you can use the Progressive Photoshot Function.
