connector (mini HDMI to standard HDMI)
if your TV accepts HDMI input, or use the
video-out cable provided.
Why is there no lens cover?

cover, keeping it simple to use and fuss-
free. It is made of robust material that
doesn’t scratch under normal usage. A
travel pouch and a lens cloth are provided,
allowing you to keep the camcorder clean.
What format does the camcorder record in?
• The camcorder uses the same video
format as Blu-ray players and discs – H.264.
This highly sophisticated format delivers
superb HD picture quality.
What does pre-record mean that is in the
setting?
• The pre-record button is designed to
let you never miss a moment. When
you enable the pre-record function, the
camcorder will record video 3 seconds
before you have pressed the record
button. So when you play-back the
recorded lm, you will automatically
see the rst 3 seconds before you have
pressed the record button. This can be
useful when lming unexpected moments.
The pre-record function will not drain
battery life, it will operate as normal.

corrected automatically by the camcorder.
