[REC SPEED] >> [SP] or [LP].

If the LP mode is selected, the recording time will be 1.5 times the SP mode, but some functions will be disabled.

We recommend using the SP mode for important recording.

In order to fully exhibit the performances of the LP mode, we recommend using Panasonic cassettes marked LP mode.

In the LP mode, the picture quality will not be degraded in comparison with the SP mode, but mosaic noise may appear on the playback image or some functions may be disabled.
