●Display when recording an image of yourself
When recording with the LCD screen facing the same direction as the
lens, the operating status will appear: The battery remaining level will
appear only when the remaining level is very low, and the display will
blink.
The following operating status indicator will light or blink to give
warning message to user. The message can be checked when returning
the LCD monitor 180º to the original status from the status in which the
LCD screen was facing the same direction as the lens.
No warning/message (see page 52) will appear when recording with the LCD screen facing the same
direction as the lens.
Instead, the following screen display symbols will blink to inform you of the operation status of
DVD video camera/recorder.
When the LCD monitor is turned 180º from the position with the LCD screen facing the same
direction as the lens, the warning/message can be checked.
●Interpreting symbols on LCD screen when recording with the screen
facing the same direction as the lens:

right reversed).
• If the LCD screen is set facing the same direction as the lens, you can also view subject image in the viewfinder.
• Although you can switch to the manual focus, exposure and on-screen display modes even during recording with

• When the LCD monitor is opened and turned 180º with the Program AE set to Low Light, the monitor screen will
