Use quick edit to search for the end of previously recorded material, find a particular spot on your tape, begin
editing, or record new material. While the camera is in record/pause mode hold down the F.F, REW, or PLAY
button and visually search the tape. Release the button and the camcorder stops the tape at the exact position
you selected.
Using Macro
This function allows you to shoot subjects as close as 3/8 inches (1cm). Press and hold the power zoom control
W. The camera focuses on the subject automatically. Check your lighting as it tends to be insufficient when
filming close up.
Date Search
The date search function memorizes the start and end positions of recordings you made on a specific day so you
can easily locate those positions later as long as the cassette is left in the camcorder.
Note: Be sure that the date and time are set.
1. Attach a power source and slide the CAM/OFF/VIDEO switch to VIDEO.
2. Press the DATE/TITLE button (the DISPLAY button on the remote control) to display "SEARCH" in the
viewfinder.
3. Press the REW button to search for the start position from which you last made a recording or the F.F button
(the F.FWD button on the remote control) to recording end position.
4. When the required position is located, the camcorder enters the stop mode and "SEARCH" disappears from
the viewfinder.
Note: If you have ejected the cassette, this function will not operate with that cassette. (When a cassette is
inserted and the recording is started, the position is identified as the recording start position on that day.)
Note: If the date/title battery is not inserted, the date search function does not operate when the battery
providing the power to the camcorder is removed.
Note: When the cassette was recorded by another camcorder, the date search function does not operate.
