Quick Review Feature
Press and release VCR when the
camcorder is in record-pause to review
the last few seconds of a recording. The
POWER switch must be set to CAMERA.
The camcorder plays back the last few
seconds of the recording, returns the tape
to its previous position, and returns to
record-pause.
Camera Edit Feature
The camera edit feature allows you to
position the tape when the camcorder is in
record-pause. Set POWER switch to
CAMERA.

in reverse.
Press and hold VCR
to visually search forward on the
recorded tape.
Release the button to return the cam-
corder to record-pause at that point on
the tape. Press the thumb trigger to start
recording at this point.
Auto Head Cleaner
The camcorder has an automatic head-
cleaning system. Whenever you insert or
remove a cassette, this system
is activated.
The head-cleaning system minimizes the
need for accessory cleaners or cleaning
by a Service Center.
Flying Erase Head
A separate erase head is mounted on
the spinning headwheel (hence the term
“flying”). This allows you to make clean
edits without the “glitches” or “rainbow
noise” that might occur at the beginning
or the end of recordings.
Tally Light
The tally light lights when the camcorder
is recording. The tally light flashes during
self-timer and time-lapse recording.
The tally light must be set to ON in the
TALLY LAMP menu. See page 54 for
details.
