This may occur when background extremely
contrasts with the subject.
If battery has not been used for some time,
completely drain the battery’s power and then
recharge it.
Battery run times are measured when the camcorder
is recording continuously. You can check your
battery by first fully charging it and then aiming the
camcorder at a clock and recording the picture of the
clock. When the recording stops, play the last
recorded section and note the clock time. A one-hour
battery should give you about 50 minutes of
recording time using the LCD monitor. In practical
use, you may not be able to record for the full time
because the camera uses battery power when it is
waiting between recordings (record-pause) and
zooming.
