Notes on the LP mode
•When you record a tape in the LP mode on your camcorder, we recommend playing back the tape on
your camcorder. When you play back the tape on other camcorders or VCRs, noise may occur in
images or sound.
•When you record in the LP mode, we recommend using a Sony video cassette so that you can get the
most out of your camcorder.
•When you record in both the SP and LP modes on one tape, or you record some scenes in the LP
mode, the playback image may be distorted.
•Noise may occur also when you play back on your camcorder tapes recorded in the LP mode on
other camcorders or VCRs.
•When you record a tape in the LP mode on your camcorder, recording is carried out in the standard
8 mm system.
Notes on VF B.L. and LCD B.L.
•When you select BRIGHT, battery life is reduced by about 10 percent during recording.
