Troubleshooting
The cassette is noisier during rewinding or fast-forwarding.
• When using the AC Adaptor, rewind/fast forward speed increases (compared with battery
operation) and therefore increases noise. This is not a malfunction.
You cannot delete pictures or format the “Memory Stick Duo.”
• Release the lock on the write-protect tab of the “Memory Stick Duo” if there is one (p. 118).
• The pictures are protected. Release the protect function on your computer, etc.
The recording does not start when you press the REC START/STOP button.
• Slide the POWER switch to CAMERA (p. 26).
• The tape has reached the end. Rewind it, or insert a new cassette.
• Set the write-protect tab of the cassette to REC or insert a new cassette (p.114).
• The tape is stuck to the drum due to moisture condensation. Remove the cassette and leave
your camcorder for at least 1 hour, then re-insert the cassette (p. 123).
The handle zoom does not work.
• Set the handle zoom switch to H or L (p. 31).
You cannot record on the “Memory Stick Duo.”

You cannot record a smooth transition on a tape from the last recorded scene
to the next.
