your camcorder. We recommend that you use a tape with cassette memory .
The functions which require different operations depending on whether the tape has
the cassette memory or not are:
–End search (p. 30)
–Date search (p. 63)
–Photo search (p. 65)
The functions you can operate only with the cassette memory are:
–Title search (p. 62)
–Superimposing a title (p. 90)
–Labeling a cassette (p. 94)
For details, see page 165.
