Locating the marking position
You can locate the beginning of a desired program easily by marking an index signal
during recording or playback and searching for it later.
Marking an index signal
You can mark an index signal during recording or playback.
When marking at the beginning of recording or playback
Press INDEX MARK on the Remote Commander in recording standby or playback
pause mode. The INDEX MARK indicator appears in the viewfinder with the MARK
indicator flashing. When recording or playback starts, the MARK indicator stops
flashing. This shows that the index signal is being marked. Then the INDEX MARK
indicator will disappear.
When marking during recording or playback
Press INDEX MARK on the Remote Commander at the point you want to locate later.
Notes on marking
• Make sure you mark index signals at more than two-minute intervals. Otherwise,
you may not be able to search for them correctly.
• If you stop recording while the index signal is being marked (the INDEX MARK
indicator lights in the viewfinder), the search may not be completed correctly.
• If you mark an index signal on the tape with the Data Code recorded, the Data Code
will be erased at the point on which the index signal is marked. When playing back
this tape, the camcorder keeps displaying the Data Code immediately before the
erased one.
• A black band appears when you mark index signal during playback, and the sound is
not recorded. This does not affect the picture and the sound that are already
recorded.
• You cannot mark an index signal on a tape with the red mark on the cassette exposed,
or on a tape recorded in LP mode.
• An index signal is marked automatically when you start recording with the POWER
switch to VTR. When you start recording from recording pause mode, however, an
index signal is not marked.
