The Rec Lamp (LED Lamp) 3 lights up during recording and alerts
those being recorded that recording is in progress. The Rec Lamp does
not light up if the [REC LAMP] on the [OTHER FUNCTIONS] Sub-menu
is set to [OFF].
For certain recording angles, it may be more convenient to use the
[REC] Button
4 as the Recording Start/Stop Button.
4 Press the Recording Start/Stop Button again to pause the
recording.
[PAUSE] is displayed. 5
If the Recording Pause Mode continues for more than 5 minutes, the
power is turned off automatically for tape protection and power
conservation. To resume recording from this condition, turn on the
power again.
When recording while the Mode Selector Switch is set to [AUTO]
6, the
Palmcorder automatically adjusts the focus and white balance. (In some
cases, they cannot be adjusted automatically and need to be adjusted
manually.) (l 30, 31)
Before turning on the power, remove the Lens Cap. If the Lens Cap is
still attached when the power is turned on, Automatic White Balance
Adjustment may not function correctly. (l 31)
ª To Check the Recording
By pressing the [S] Button 7 in the Recording Pause Mode, you can play
back the last few seconds of the recorded scene.
For recording check, the Palmcorder must be the same as the recording
speed Modes (SP/LP) used for the recording. Otherwise the playback
images will be distorted.
ª To View the recorded scene while the Recording is
paused
(Camera Search)
The recorded scene can be viewed by holding down the [SEARCHj] Button
7 or [SEARCHi] Button 8 in the Recording Pause Mode.
The Camera Search Function is useful for finding the starting point of a new
scene to create a smooth transition from one scene to another.
When the [SEARCHj] Button is pressed, images are played back in the
reverse direction.
When the [SEARCHi] Button is pressed, images are played back in the
forward direction.
In Camera Search Mode, images may contain mosaic-like noise patterns.
This is a phenomenon that is characteristic of digital video and not a
malfunction.
If the recording speed Modes (SP/LP) of previous recording and new
recording are different, playback images may be distorted.
ª To Finish the Recording
Set the [OFF/ON/MODE] Switch to [OFF].
