∫TBC (Time Base Corrector) Function

Playback of certain cassettes can cause slight horizontal shaking of the picture or other distortion. To minimize such distortion and ensure a stable playback picture, this Movie Camera is equipped with the TBC Function. This function is automatically activated within a few seconds after playback has started, and the [TBC] Indication appears.

∫Cancelling the TBC Function

With certain cassettes, however, the TBC Function could cause slight vertical shaking or other distortion in the playback picture. In this case, first try to adjust the tracking (p. 28). If this does not improve the picture, cancel the TBC Function by keeping the [TBC] Button pressed until the [TBC] Indication disappears. If you want to turn the TBC Function on again, press the [TBC] Button for a few seconds until the [TBC] Indication reappears. Even if you cancel the TBC Function, it is automatically turned back on when you switch the Movie Camera from the Camera
