FWD, PLAY and STOP). Note that the camcorder stops the manual
interval recording if you press the EJECT button while manual interval

recording by setting the POWER switch to OFF or pressing the EJECT

• If you remove the battery, unplug the DC cable, or cut the power to the
AC adaptor while manual interval recording, the image currently being
shot on the camcorder (maximum 5 seconds, 150 frames) will not be
recorded. Do not change the battery while manual interval recording.
• When tape runs out during manual interval recording
Note that the picture data (maximum 5 seconds, 150 frames) at the
instant the tape stopped is not recorded if the tape runs out and the
camcorder stops.
