Troubleshooting
Symptom
A vertical strip appears when
you record a bright subject
against a dark background
(candle flame, for example)
The image in the viewfinder is
blurred
The tape does not move when
you press the Play, Fast
Forward or Rewind buttons.
The Date/Time or Title disap-
peared even though you had it
set.
Explanation/Solution
◆ The contrast between the subject and the background is too
great for the camcorder to operate normally. Make the back-
ground bright to reduce the contrast or use the BLC function
while you are recording. (see page 37)
◆ The viewfinder lens has not been adjusted.
Turn the viewfinder focus ring until the screen comes into
sharp focus. (see page 28)
◆ Set the POWER switch to PLAYER.
◆ You have reached the beginning or end of the cassette.
◆ The lithium battery is not installed or is fully used up.
