NOTES:

•You can also use the provided remote control’s AUDIO button R to change the output sound (without having to access the Playback Menu). Make sure you point the remote control at the camcorder’s remote sensor 1.

•The camcorder cannot detect the sound mode in which the recording was made during fast-forward or rewind. During playback the sound mode is displayed in the upper left corner.

•The “SOUND MODE” setting is available for both

12-bit and 16-bit sound. (In previous models’ functions, “12-bit” is called “32 kHz” and “16-bit” is called “48 kHz”.)
