Wide Screen (16:9)
Available mode:

The wide screen function lets you record
scenes with the wide-screen feel of a movie
shown in a theatre. The top and bottom of the
picture are masked with black bands to
produce an effective screen aspect ratio of
16:9.

MENU button until the menu screen
appears.
2 Press l or m on the operation button
to select Y, then press the SET button.
3 Press l or m to select “16:9”, then
press the SET button.
4 Press l or m to select “ON”, then press
the SET button.
5 Press the MENU button to turn off the
menu screen.
• The picture is displayed with the top and
bottom portions masked.
To return to normal screen
Select “OFF” in step 4 above.
Note:
• When still recording with “9 FRAMES” or “16
FRAMES” effect, each frame will display in
normal (not wide) screen.
Digital Image Stabilization
(DIS)
Available modes:
TAPE-CAMERA, CARD-CAMERA
The digital image stabilization (DIS) function
allows you to stabilize the image by electroni-
cally compensating for relatively minor image
shaking that is often annoying in close-up
shots.
Press the DIS button. The z indicator appears,
and the camcorder enters DIS mode.
To return to normal recording mode, press the
DIS button again. The z indicator will disap-
pear.
Notes:
• The DIS function cannot compensate for
excessive image shaking.
• When image shaking does not occur (e.g. when
using the camcorder on a tripod), turn off the DIS
function. The picture will appear more natural
when the DIS function is off.
