Recording

Hints

You can play back the last recorded scene right away by pressing the confirmation button. If you wish to delete the last recorded scene, press MENU and select “Edit”

“Delete Scene”, and then press the confirmation button. (For recording on a HDD, BD-RE/DVD-RAM/DVD-RW (VR mode) disc or a card only)

For details on screen displays during recording, see p.31.

You can change the movie recording quality (p.54).

You can play back still pictures in wide mode (p.54).

If you cannot record a scene, the camcorder does not operate, or it takes too long for recording to start, see “Troubleshooting” (p.97).

If the automatic lens cover has stopped opening halfway, turn the power switch to “OFF”, then turn it to “ON” again.

If you want to compose a shot in which the subject is not centered, first press PHOTO halfway with the subject centered in the monitor. Next, with the button pressed halfway, compose your shot and fully press PHOTO.

If the camcorder has difficulty focusing, adjust the focus manually (p.45).

You can check HDD, BD/DVD, Card capacity and number of remaining recordable pictures (p.112).

Notes

Do not detach the AC adapter/charger or battery pack from the camcorder during recording. The recorded scene will be lost.

The (CARD) ACCESS indicator remains flashing for a while even after you finish recording. While the (CARD) ACCESS indicator is flashing or when a message appears on the display reporting that the recording is currently being saved:

Do not turn off the power.

Do not detach the AC adapter/charger or battery pack from the camcorder.

Do not shake the camcorder.

Doing so may cause an error in the recorded data and you may not be able to play back the recorded scenes (p.14, 15, 107).

The minimum recording time for movies is about three seconds (even if you press the record button before three recording seconds have elapsed).

You cannot record movies or still images on a protected BD/DVD disc or a locked card (p.22, 69).

The recorded image may be blurred if camera shake occurs. Hold the camcorder with both hands and tuck your elbows to your chest or sides for best recording results.

When recording with digital zoom, use a tripod for best results.

The recorded image may differ slightly from the image in the LCD monitor.
