About Recording
When recording pictures on a tape, set the Mode
Dial to Tape Recording Mode [ ].
When recording with the
[AUTO/MANUAL/FOCUS] Switch
(44) set to
[AUTO], the Camcorder automatically adjusts the
focus and white balance. In some cases, they
cannot be adjusted automatically and need to be
adjusted manually. (
-28-, -29-)
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 (
-28-) may not
function correctly.
When the Recording Pause Mode continues for
more than 5 minutes, the power is turned off
automatically for tape protection and power
conservation. (If the AC Adaptor is used, the
power is turned off only when the tape is
inserted in Tape Recording Mode.) When the
tape is inserted in Tape Recording Mode and if
the Recording Pause Mode continues for more
than 5 minutes the power is turned off
automatically. To resume recording from this
condition, turn off, then turn on the power again.
ª Recording Lamp
The Recording Lamp (16) lights up during
recording and alerts those being recorded that
recording is in progress.
The Recording Lamp does not light up if the
[REC LAMP] on the [INITIAL] Sub-Menu is set
to [OFF].
