Remaining Recording Time
Display
Available mode:
TAPE-CAMERA
When the camcorder is recording in TAPE-
CAMERA mode, an on-screen indicator
displays the approximate remaining tape time
in minutes.
Notes:
• The remaining recording time indicator
appears when the OSD menu item is set to
“ON”.
• The remaining recording time indicator
appears 10 seconds after pressing the REC
START/STOP button to begin recording.
• The remaining recording time indicator only
shows the approximate time left. Also, it varies
slightly depending on the length of tape used.
(This function is based on the DVM60 tape
standard.)
Remaining Battery Power
Display
Available modes:
All modes
When using the camcorder with the battery
pack as the power source, the remaining
battery power indicator is displayed. If the
battery power becomes very low, a warning
indicator appears. Replace the battery pack.
Notes:
• The remaining battery power indicator
appears when the OSD menu item is set to
“ON”.
• Use the remaining battery power indicator only
as an approximate indication.
• The remaining battery power indicator may
change to either a higher or lower level if you set
the Power switch to OFF and then back to
CAMERA or VCR.
• In cold environments, the red remaining battery
power indicator may appear sooner. The battery
pack, however, can be used until the warning
indicator appears.
• Use of the zoom functions when the warning
indicator is displayed may cause the camcorder
to suddenly lose power.
