Selecting the START/STOP mode

Your camcorder has two modes besides normal start/stop mode. These modes enable you to take a series of quick shots resulting in a lively video.

(1)Set START/STOP MODE to the desired mode.

: Recording starts when you press START/STOP, and stops when you press it again (normal mode).

ANTI GROUND SHOOTING : The camcorder records only while you press down START/STOP so that you can avoid recording unnecessary scenes.

5 SEC : When you press START/STOP, the camcorder records for 5 seconds and then stops automatically.

(2)Turn STANDBY up and press START/STOP. Recording starts.

If you selected 5 SEC, five dots appear in the viewfinder. The dots disappear at a rate of one per second as illustrated below.

To extend the recording time in 5 SEC mode

Press START/STOP again before all the dots disappear. Recording continues for about 5 seconds from the moment you press START/STOP.
