Notes:
¥ÒSqueezeÓ is an image compression technology. A 16:9 image is compressed and recorded (squeeze recorded) as a 4:3 image.
¥In stretch playback mode, you cannot perform frame advance, slow, and picture effect playback or copy an image from tape to card.
¥When outputting the stretch playback image from the DV terminal, the original image signal will be output.
¥When performing stretch playback, the normal recorded image (picture aspect ratio 4:3) will be stretched as shown below.
