Basic recording

•For on-screen information display, see pages 16~18.

•For approximate recording times, see page 33.

•Eject the battery when you have finished recording to prevent unnecessary battery power consumption.

•For various functions available when you record videos, see pages 52~66.

•During recording, some button operations are unavailable. ([MODE] button, [MENU] button, etc.)

•Sound is recorded from the internal stereo microphone on the top-front of the camcorder. Take care that this microphone is not blocked.

•Before recording an important video, make sure to test the recording function to check if there is any problem with the audio or video recording.

•You can adjust the brightness of the LCD screen in the menu options. Adjusting the LCD screen does not affect the image being recorded. page 77

•You cannot use a locked memory card for recording. You will see a message saying recording is disabled due to the lock.

•Recording videos in a quiet environment increases microphone sensitivity. This increased sensitivity may cause the microphone to record surrounding ambient noise. The increased microphone sensitivity may also cause the camcorder to record the noise the zoom mechanism makes if you use the zoom while recording.

•When you record indoors or in the dark places, ISO sensitivity is automatically adjusted. In very dark places, the ISO adjustment can cause interference effects on images and prevent you from recording these images correctly. We recommend you use a professional, infrared camcorder when recording in dark places or at night.

•An image can be blurred when the Anti-Shake(HDIS) function is enabled and the camcorder is mounted on a tripod or fixed in place. Release the Anti-Shake(HDIS) function when the camcorder is mounted on a tripod.
