the Back Search button once, the FS-100 is now in 2X FF mode. In
addition, this applies to backward search speeds. The default speed
resolution is as follows (NTSC and PAL, have slightly different multiples for
< 1X):
• Reverse: -30X, -10X, -2X, -1X (reverse play), -1/2X(-15fps), Still.
• Forward: Still, +1/2X (+15fps), +1X (play), +2X, +10X, +30X
Fast Forward and Reverse Search Compatible Camcorders
In Forward and Reverse Search modes, some camcorders do not display
video when played-back from an external device, such as the FS-100.
