Using Still
To view a still picture during playback press the Start/Stop. Press the Start/Stop button
again to resume playback. If you leave the camcorder in play/pause mode for more than
5 minutes the camcorder automatically stops the cassette to prevent damage to the
tape.
You can view a still picture with less noise on the LCD monitor.
Note: The still picture will have several noise bars in the viewfinder and on the TV, but this
does not indicate a fault.
Note: If you are freezing a picture with the LCD monitor closed, then you will not be able to
view a still picture with less noise when you open the monitor.

normal speed. Press PLAY button to return to normal playback.
• Press REW/REVIEW button during playback to play the tape backwards at
approximately 7 times normal speed. Press PLAY button to return to normal playback.
