TBC (Time Base Corrector) Function

Playback of certain cassettes can cause slight
horizontal shaking of the picture or other distortion.
To minimize such distortion and ensure a stable
playback picture, this Movie Camera is equipped with
the TBC Function. This function is automatically
activated within a few seconds after playback has
started, and the [TBC] Indication appears.

Cancelling the TBC Function

With certain cassettes, however, the TBC Function
could cause slight vertical shaking or other distortion
in the playback picture. In this case, first try to adjust
the tracking (p. 28). If this does not improve the
picture, cancel the TBC Function by keeping the
[TBC] Button pressed until the [TBC] Indication
disappears. If you want to turn the TBC Function on
again, press the [TBC] Button for a few seconds until
the [TBC] Indication reappears. Even if you cancel
the TBC Function, it is automatically turned back on
when you switch the Movie Camera from the Camera
Mode to the VCR Mode.

In the Following Cases, the TBC Function

Does Not Work:

In the Cue, Review or Still Playback Mode
When using the Camera Search or Recording
Check Function
When adjusting the tracking
When playing back an unrecorded part on the tape
When you play back a cassette with stretched,
shrunk or otherwise damaged tape, the TBC
Function does not work correctly (it may repeatedly
turn on and off). In this case, cancel the TBC
Function.
