Be sure to remove the battery pack from the camcorder after using.
To focus the viewfinder lens
If you cannot see the indicators in the viewfinder clearly, focus the viewfinder lens.
Turn the viewfinder lens adjustment ring [a] (CCD-TR315) or move the viewfinder lens
adjustment lever [b] (CCD-TR416/TR516) so that the indicators in the viewfinder come
into sharp focus.
Note on Standby mode
If you leave the camcorder in Standby mode for 5 minutes while the cassette is inserted,
the camcorder turns off automatically for saving battery power as well as for preventing
the battery and tape from wearing down. To resume Standby mode, turn STANDBY
down and up again. To start recording, press START/STOP.
Note on recording
When you record from the beginning of a tape, run the tape for about 15 seconds before
starting the actual recording. Passing the tape lead will ensure that you will not miss
any start-up scenes when you play back the tape.
