CHARGE MARKER

 

Charge marker

A charge marker is provided on the battery pack to

 

 

 

help you remember whether it has been charged or

 

 

not. Two colors are provided (red and black)—you

choose which one means charged and which means discharged.

NOTES:

The recording time per charge is affected by such factors as the time spent in Record-Standby mode and the frequency of zooming. It is safer to have spare battery packs.

Charging times noted on page 10 are for fully discharged battery pack, and discharging times are for fully charged battery pack.

Charging and discharging times vary according to the ambient temperature and the status of the battery pack.

Remember to set the charge marker after charging a battery pack or after detaching a discharged one from your camcorder.

Perform the REFRESH function after no less than 5 chargings.

While the AC Power Adapter/Charger’s power cord is disconnected from the AC outlet, it is possible to discharge the battery by pressing the REFRESH switch. During that time, the AC Power Adapter/Charger does not charge the battery. When disharging is complete, detach the battery from the AC Power Adapter/ Charger to store it.

High temperatures can damage the battery pack, so use only where good ventilation is available. Don’t allow it to discharge in container, such as a bag.

If you stop recharging or discharging part way through, make sure to remove the battery pack before unplugging the adapter’s AC cord.

Remove the battery pack from the adapter immediately after discharging.

To avoid interference with reception, do not use the AC Power Adapter/Charger near a radio.

Make sure you unplug the DC cord before charging or discharging the battery pack.

The CHG. indicator may not light properly with a brand new battery pack, or with one that’s been stored for an extended period. In this case, remove and reattach the battery pack and recharge it. The CHG. indicator should blink during recharging. If not, contact your nearest JVC dealer.

This capability is ideal for users looking to create videos with improved resolution and color depth.

The GR-AXM900 boasts a powerful zoom lens, featuring a 10x optical zoom that allows users to focus on subjects from a distance without sacrificing image quality. Additionally, it offers a 700x digital zoom, enabling even greater magnification when needed, making it a versatile tool for capturing a range of scenes, from close-ups to distant landscapes.

User convenience is enhanced by the camcorder’s sophisticated autofocus system. The autofocus feature helps ensure that subjects are sharp and in focus, which is especially useful for novice filmmakers who may be learning the ins and outs of manual focusing. The camera also includes several shooting modes, allowing users to easily switch between standard recording and various special effects.

Another notable characteristic of the JVC GR-AXM900 is its capability to record audio with built-in stereo microphones, providing a richer sound quality that complements the video footage. Furthermore, the camcorder comes equipped with a color viewfinder and a flip-out LCD screen, giving users a clear view of their subject while recording.

The design of the GR-AXM900 is user-friendly, with controls positioned for easy access, allowing for smooth operation during shooting. It is powered by rechargeable batteries, contributing to its portability and ease of use for extended filming sessions.

In summary, the JVC GR-AXM900 was a significant advancement in consumer camcorder technology, providing impressive features for capturing high-quality video.
