Changing the Recording Mode (SP/LP)
You can choose between SP (standard play) and LP (long play). LP extends the tape usage by 1.5 times.
To change to LP mode, open the menu and select [VCR SETUP]. Select [REC MODE], set it
to [LP] and close the menu.
Depending on the nature and usage condition of the tape, picture and sound recorded in
LP mode may be distorted. We recommend using the SP mode for important recordings.
❍ If you record in both SP and LP modes on the same tape, the playback picture may become
distorted, and the time code may not be written correctly.
❍ If you play back a tape that has been recorded in LP mode with another digital device on this
camcorder, or vice versa, picture and sound may become distorted.
Superimposing the Screen Displays
Character record is a feature that allows for the superimposition of meta data - month, day, hour,
minute and second - permanently burned on to the video. This is ideal for surveillance and law
enforcement use.
Open the menu and select [SYSTEM]. Select [CHAR. REC], set it to [ON] and close the
menu.
❍ Make sure to set [CHAR. REC] to [OFF] when you do not wish to superimpose the screen displays.
❍ Superimposed screen displays cannot be erased later.
Turning Off the Tally Lamps
Open the menu and select [SYSTEM]. Select [TALLY LAMP], set it to [OFF] and close the
menu.
The tally lamps still light up when the camcorder receives a signal from the wireless controller, or during
self-timer countdown.
