16:9 (Wide screen TV recording)
Produces images in the 16:9 format for
playback on wide screen TVs.
To switch 16:9 to ON, open the menu and select CAM.SET UP. Then
select 16:9, set it to ON and close the menu.
Notes:
• The 16:9 mode is an electronically processed effect.
• “16:9” is shown in the display when you switch the 16:9 mode on.
• You cannot use the 16:9 mode with the Easy Recording program.
• You cannot use the multi-image screen when setting the 16:9 mode on.
• If you play back a recording made for 16:9 on a normal TV screen, the image
will appear to be vertically “squashed” (compressed).
• If you connect the camcorder to a TV with an S1 terminal or the Video ID-1
system, recordings made in the 16:9 mode for wide screen TVs will
automatically play back in wide screen mode on the TV screen.
