Changing the Recording Mode (SP/LP) 
You can choose from SP (standard play) and LP (long play). LP extends the tape usage
by 1.5 times.
E
❍Tapes recorded in LP mode cannot be used for audio dubbing ( 
95) or AV insert ( 
93).
❍Depending on the nature and usage condition of the tape, picture and sound recorded in LP mode may be distorted. We recommend using the SP mode for important recordings.
❍We recommend recording in SP mode if you plan to transfer the images to a computer.
❍If you record in both SP and LP modes on the same tape, the playback picture may become distorted and the time code may not be written correctly.
❍If you play back a tape that has been recorded in LP mode with another digital device on this camcorder, or vice versa, picture and sound may become distorted.
