Adjusting the Microphone Sensitivity
Level
When recording, the input level from the built-in
microphone and the external microphone terminal
can be adjusted.
≥Set to Tape Recording/Playback Mode.
1 Set [ADVANCED] >> [MIC LEVEL] >>
[AUTO], [SETrAGC] or [SET].
AGC*: Auto Gain Control
[AUTO]: AGC is activated, and the recording
level is adjusted automatically.
[SETrAGC]:The desired recording level can be
set. AGC will also be activated to
reduce the amount of sound
distortion.
[SET]: AGC is not activated and so natural
recording can be performed. Adjust
in such a way that the sound will not
be distorted at the maximum volume
level.
2 Move the joystick left or right to increase or
decrease the bars of the gain value.
3 Press the joystick to determine the setting.
≥Adjust the gain value so that the last 3 bars of
the [ ] on the center of the screen will not light
red. (Otherwise, the sound is distorted.) Select a
lower setting for gain value or set [MIC LEVEL]
to [AUTO].
≥The [MIC LEVEL] ([AUTO], [SETrAGC] or
[SET]) setting on the Tape Recording/Playback
Mode will be the same.
(Microphone sensitivity level can be adjusted on
each mode separately.)
≥When [ZOOM MIC] is set to [ON], set the zoom
to the [T] position before performing this
adjustment.
Auto Ground-Directional Standby
(AGS)
This function prevents unnecessary recording
when you forget to pause recording and walk with
the Camcorder tilted upside down while recording
continues.
≥If the Camcorder continues to be tilted upside
down from the normal horizontal position while
recording on a tape, it is automatically put into
recording pause.
[AGS]: Auto Ground-Directional Standby
≥Set to Tape Recording Mode.
Set [SETUP] >> [AGS] >> [ON].
ª
To cancel Auto Ground-Directional
Standby
Set [SETUP] >> [AGS] >> [OFF].
≥The AGS function may activate and cause the
Camcorder to pause the recording if you are
recording a subject right above or right below
you. In these cases, set [AGS] >> [OFF] then
continue the recording.
≥Use the recording start/stop button to pause or
stop the recording. The AGS function is only a
backup function for when you forget to pause
the recording.
≥The time it takes the Camcorder to be put into
recording pause after being tilted upside down
varies depending on the operating conditions.
