Notes:

•To use the self-timer ( 65), press the button before step 3, and then press the PHOTO button fully down.

•The wireless controller’s PHOTO button has no half-way setting. Press the button fully and the camcorder immediately takes the image.

•When the POWER switch is set to CAMERA and the TAPE/CARD switch is moved from TAPE to CARD, the camcorder modifies the image for appropriate recording onto a memory card.
