The tally light lights when the camcorder is recording.
Microphone
The microphone picks up the sound during a recording. It is more sensitive to sounds coming from the direction the lens is pointed.

Electronic Indexing
An index mark is automatically recorded at the beginning of a recording after the date advances and a cassette is inserted. When you play back the indexed tape in a VCR that has a compatible indexing feature called “VHS Index Search System”, the invisible marks can be located automatically. See VCR owner’s manual.
INDEX flashes in the viewfinder when an index mark is recorded.
