Video Light Details
Even if the battery icon ( ) doesn’t blink due to
low battery charge, the camcorder may turn off
automatically when you turn on the video light, or if
the video light is turned on when you start a
recording.
When LIGHT OFF/AUTO/ON switch is set to AUTO:
• The video light may keep turning on and off
depending on the lighting conditions. If this
happens, manually switch the light ON or OFF
using the LIGHT OFF/AUTO/ON switch.
• If the Sports or High Speed Shutter mode is
turned on, the video light is likely to stay on.
• While in Twilight mode, the light won’t activate.
Notes:
• The video light can only be used when
the camcorder is on.
• Set the white balance to artificial light
( ) when using the video light to avoid
a “washed-out” look.
• When not using the video light, turn it
off to save battery power.
Cautions
• Never operate the video light closer than 1 foot to people or other
objects.
• The video light becomes very hot. Do not touch it during use or right
after use. Serious injury may result.
• Do not place the camcorder in a carrying case right after using the light.
• Never operate the video light close to flammable or explosive material.
• Consult your nearest RCA authorized service center to replace the video
light.
• The video light and bulb need to cool for approximately 30 minutes
after use before the bulb assembly is replaced.
