M
) record mode, powered
off (OFF), or in playback mode (
).
The POWER indicator comes on when the
camcorder is turned on.
Automatic recording

places the camcorder
into AutoShot™ mode. Focus, exposure, iris
control, white balance, and the video light are
controlled by the camcorder during automatic
recording.
Manual recording mode

control many of the camcorder’s special
features, including accessing the menus and

AutoShot mode (see pages 57-59 for
more information).
• The camcorder automatically turns off to
save battery power if you leave it in
record-standby mode for more than five
minutes. To turn it back on, set the
Power switch to OFF, then back to
automatic or manual record mode.
