The tally lamp lets you know that the
camcorder is recording, receiving
signals from the wireless controller or
counting down for the self-timer.
However, its flashing may be
reflected into the lens during close-
up recording, or when recording
through glass.
You may therefore decide to turn it
off.
To turn the tally lamp off, open the menu and select SYSTEM. Then
select TALLY LAMP, set it to OFF and close the menu.
• The tally lamp no longer flashes during recording, but it will still light up
when the camcorder receives a signal from the wireless controller and
during the self-timer countdown.

Notes:
• “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.
