Notes and Hints
ªConcerning the Power Supply
≥When the Movie Camera is used for a long time, the Camera body becomes warm, but this is not
a malfunction.
≥If the [CHARGE] Lamp does not light up although the Battery is attached to the AC Adaptor, detach the Battery and reattach it.
ªInserting/Removing the Cassette
≥In the case of using a previously recorded Cassette, you can use the Blank Search Function to find the position where you want to continue recording.
≥If a new Cassette is inserted, rewind to the beginning of the tape before starting recording.
≥When inserting the cassette, make sure it faces in the right direction and then push it in until it stops.
≥When the Cassette Holder is in action, do not touch anything except the [PUSH] mark.
≥When closing the Cassette Compartment Cover, do not get anything caught in the cover, such as a cable of an optional stereo microphone.

≥The sound cannot be recorded.
≥The file format supported by this Movie Camera is JPEG. (Not all the JPEG formatted files will be played back.)
≥If [NORMAL] or [ECONOMY] is selected for recording,
≥It may not be possible to play back a
another movie camera.
≥When there is a contrasty object ahead or behind the subject in the focus area, the subject may not be focused. In this case, move the contrasty object out of the focus area.
To record still pictures clearly
≥When zooming to the subject with magnification of k4 to k10 or higher, it is difficult to reduce slight jitters by holding the Movie Camera with hand. We recommend decreasing the zoom magnification and approaching to the subject when recording.
≥When recording still pictures, hold the Movie Camera firmly with your hands and keep arms stationally to your side not to shake the Movie Camera.
≥You can record stable pictures without jitters using a tripod and the remote controller.
About the Shutter Chance Mark (NV-GS200 only)
≥The Shutter Chance Mark does not appear in manual focus mode.
≥When the subject is not easily focused, focus on the subject manually.
≥You can record still pictures on the Card even if the Shutter Chance Mark does not appear. However, images may be recorded without being focused.
