•The camcorder re-enters the Record-Standby mode.

NOTES:

When the Power Switch is set to “CAMERA” and the LCD monitor is opened at an angle of 60 degrees or more, the LCD monitor switches on and the viewfinder switches off automatically to save power.

The cassette holder cannot be opened unless a power supply is attached.

There may be a delay after you slide EJECT until the holder opens. Do not use force.

The tape remaining time is only displayed in the viewfinder as shown.

The remaining time indicated in the viewfinder is approximate.

The time required to calculate the remaining tape length, and the accuracy of the calculation, may vary according to the type of tape used.

The tape remaining time indicator is correct only if the correct tape length has been selected (pg. 10).

“TAPE END” appears when the tape reaches its end, and the power goes off automatically if left in this condition for 5 minutes. “TAPE END” also appears when a cassette whose tape is already at its end is loaded.

If the Record–Standby mode continues for 5 minutes without performing Zoom or any other operations, the camcorder’s power shuts off automatically. Set the Power Switch to “POWER OFF”, and then back to “CAMERA” to turn the camcorder on again.

If the Recording Start/Stop button is pressed after the Record-Standby mode has continued for over

5 minutes, recording may not start immediately.

If you are recording on a cassette from the middle (such

as when a tape is removed and re-inserted during recording), use the Retake function (pg. 25) to find the end of the last recording so you don’t erase any of it.

The LENS COVER warning blinks for about 5 seconds when the camcorder is turned on with the cover closed.

While shooting, sound is not heard from the speaker.

To turn the tally lamp off during recording, refer to pgs. 32 and 34.
