The camcorder is in the Loop Rec mode when the rotary encoder is any position except OFF. In this mode, picture, sound, and time code are constantly saved to memory. The TALLY lamp (green tally) is on during this time.

6 To end the menu operation, set the MENU ON/OFF/PAGE switch to OFF.

The setup menu disappears from the viewfinder screen and the display indicating the current status of the camcorder appears along the top and bottom of the viewfinder.

Settings made in Loop Rec mode are maintained until changed.
