JOURNALISTIC SHOOTING

In some situations, different shooting angles may
provide more dramatic results. Hold the camcorder in
the desired position and tilt the LCD monitor in the
most convenient direction. It can rotate 270° (90°
downward, 180° upward).

SELF-RECORDING

You can shoot yourself while viewing your own image
in the LCD monitor. Open the LCD monitor and tilt it
upward 180° so that it faces forward, then point the
lens toward yourself and start recording.

your preference using the Power Switch and VIDEO/
MEMORY Switch (GR-DVL867/DVL865/DVL767/
