WIND SCREEN

Mode switch: P

[ AUTO], [ OFF ]

The camcorder automatically reduces the background sound of wind when recording outdoors.

•The wind screen cannot be turned off when the mode switch is set to AUTO.

•Some low-frequency sounds will be suppressed along with the sound of wind. When recording in surroundings unaffected by wind or if you want to record low-frequency sounds, we recommend setting the wind screen

to [ OFF ].

HDD OPERATIONS

HDD USAGE INFO

Displays a screen where you can verify the approximate used hard disk space. This option is available only from the original index screen.

•Hard disk space is calculated in

0.1 GB increments and rounded off. In addition, some hard disk space is used for file management data. As a result, the total space will be slightly less than 40 GB.

INITIALIZE HDD

[NO], [YES]

Initializes the hard disk. This option is available only from the original index screen.

DROP SENSOR

[ ON], [ OFF ]

Detects when the camcorder is dropped and activates a protection mechanism to help prevent hard disk damage. While the

mechanism is active, appears in red on the screen and playback/recording may stop. This option is available only from the original index screen.

•Keep this function set to [ ON] in most situations. Deactivating this function can increase the likelihood of hard disk damage should the camcorder be dropped. Even if this

function is set to [ ON] and the camcorder is dropped, hard disk damage can occur.

•You can set the drop sensor to

[ OFF ] to record while, for example, riding a roller coaster. If left

set to [ ON] and the protection mechanism activates, its operation noise may be heard and recording/ playback may stop.
