Playing back a widescreen recording: TV

sets compatible with the Video ID-1 system will automatically switch to wide (16:9) mode. Otherwise, change the aspect ratio of the TV manually. To play back on a TV with normal aspect ratio (4:3) change the [TV TYPE] setting

accordingly (

43).

DV REC MODE

DV

[ STD PLAY], [ LONG PLAY] When [HD STANDARD] is set to one of the DV standards, you can change the video quality and as a result, also the recording time available on the tape.

Recording in LP mode extends the available recording time on the tape 1.5 times.

Depending on the condition of the tape (long usage, imperfections, etc.) you may notice some video problems (blocky video artifacts, banding, etc.) in the playback picture when playing back recordings made in LP mode. We recommend using the SP mode for important recordings.

If you make recordings in both SP and LP modes on the same tape, during playback you may notice some video problems in the picture at the point where the recording mode changes.

When playing back in this camcorder tapes recorded in LP mode with other devices or vice versa, you may notice some problems in the playback picture or the sound may stop briefly.
