NOTES:

When you use the LCD monitor outdoors in direct sunlight, the LCD monitor may be difficult to see. If this

happens, we recommend that you use the viewfinder (pg. 16).

The tape remaining time is not displayed on the LCD monitor. However, when the tape is about to reach its

end, the following indicators appear: “ 2MIN´1MIN´0MIN”.

For other notes, refer to pg. 17.
