2 ENGAGE RECORD-STANDBY MODE Press START/STOP when one scene is finished. The point at which the scene ended is stored in memory.

3 RESUME RECORDING

If you start recording a new scene within 5 minutes of the end of the previous recording (without having turned the camcorder’s power off), the previous scene wipes out, revealing the new scene.

NOTES:

If you turn off the power after having finished recording a scene, the stored point is erased. This disables the Picture Wipe/Dissolve combination. When this happens, the Picture Wipe/Dissolve indicator blinks. Try recording again, but don’t turn the power off when you’re finished. Please be advised that power also shuts off automatically if 5 minutes elapse in the Record-Standby mode. The camcorder stores the end point of the last recorded scene, and you can use Picture Wipe/Dissolve between the last scene and the next one.

The sound at the end of the last recorded scene is not stored.
