You can select between SP (standard play) and LP (long play). LP extends the
tape usage by 1.5 times.
Changing the Recording Mode
It is not possible to dub audio or insert images to a tape that has been
recorded in LP mode.
To change to LP mode, open the menu and select VCR SET UP.
Then select REC MODE, set it to LP and close the menu.
Notes:
Depending on the nature and usage condition of the tape,
recording/playback in LP mode may cause image or sound distortion. We
recommend using the SP mode for important recordings.
We recommend recording in SP mode when you plan to transfer images
taken with the camcorder to your PC.
If you record in both modes on the same tape, the image may become
distorted during playback and the time code may not be written correctly.
If you play back a tape recorded on another digital equipment on this
camcorder, or vice versa, image and sound may become distorted.
