Wide Mode

This recording mode is compatible with wide-screen TVs (16:9 aspect ratio). When using this mode, please refer to your wide-screen TV’s instruction manual.

SQUEEZE–For playback on TVs with an aspect ratio of 16:9. Naturally expands the image to fit the screen without distortion. appears in the viewfinder.

CINEMA–Inserts black bands at the top and bottom of the screen. Works with both 4:3 and 16:9 TVs. Used with the Sepia (pg. 37) or Monotone (pg. 37) modes, it gives the recorded scenes the look of a classic movie.

OFF–Select “OFF” when you don’t want to use either of the above modes (first set the Select Dial to “MANUAL”). *During Full-Auto operation, both Squeeze and Cinema modes are unusable.

A discriminating signal is automatically recorded when you select either “SQUEEZE” or “CINEMA” for recording. If your wide TV has the automatic discriminating function, connect an S-Video cable between connector S1 or S2 on the TV and the S-Video output connector on the Docking Station. During playback, the images is naturally expanded to fit the wide screen, with no proportional distortion.

NOTES:

When playing back through a video cassette recorder, or to a wide-screen TV, that doesn’t have the automatic discriminating function, change the setting on the TV manually.

When recording using the Squeeze, the image in the viewfinder, as well as on a regular TV (if connected for playback) will be the standard aspect ratio and the picture will appear squeezed.

When playing back a tape recorded in Squeeze and Cinema, Squeeze cannot be distinguished from Cinema during fast-forward or rewind.

DIS (Digital Image Stabilizer)

When recording while holding the camcorder in your hand, or when shooting a subject with llittle or no contrast, subtle hand movements will cause shakiness in the recorded image.

ON–Compensates for relatively small shakes that occur when shooting close up. “” appears in the viewfinder during recording. *This function is usable when the Select Dial is set to “MANUAL”. OFF–When shooting with the camcorder in a fixed position or on a tripod, set the Stabilizer to “OFF”. If you leave it on and then move or turn the camera to follow a moving subject, unnecessary compensation occurs and this can result in an unnatural recorded image.

NOTES:

The Stabilizer cannot compensate for drastic hand movements while shooting.

The Stabilizer will not work when certain

P.AE/ Effects (Classic Film, Strobe, Slow 1, 2

(pg. 37) and Fade/Wipe Effects (Picture Wipe/ Dissolve (pg. 33) are activated.

The “” indicator appears blinking in the viewfinder.

Zoom Magnification

You can select 10x, 20x, or 100x zoom magnifications.

10x–Optical zoom that does not degrade the quality of the recording.

20x–Electronic processing (Digital zoom) that lets you get closer up.

100x–Electronically-processed images at 100-times magnification.

Gain Up

Bright, natural recordings can be taken even in areas with low or poor lighting.

A–The shutter speed is automatically adjusted (1/

30 — 1/200 sec.). Shooting a subject in low or poor lighting at 1/30 sec. shutter speed provides a brighter image than in the AGC mode, but the subject’s movements are not smooth or natural. OFF–Select this setting when lighting is not a problem.

AGC–This is the factory setting, and is automatically activated during Auto operation. The overall appearance is jagged, but the image is bright and the movements are more natural than in “A” mode.
