QUICK REC (Quick recording)

Takes more time to reach the recording start point, but a smooth transition can be recorded.

ON ( )

Slightly reduces the time it takes to start recording when you attempt to record right after you switch on the camcorder (set the POWER switch to CAMERA-TAPE from the OFF (CHG) position), or when you attempt to record when the recording stanby mode is canceled.

bNotes

If [QUICK REC] is set to [ON], the interval between scenes freezes for a moment (editing on your computer is recommended).

zTips

If the recording standby mode continues more than approximately 3 minutes, the drum will stop rolling, and the standby mode is canceled. This is to protect the tape and to prevent from unnecessarily battery exhausting.
