Remaining battery time indicator
The remaining battery time indicator indicates the approximate recording time. The
indicator may not be correct, depending on the conditions in which you are recording.
When you close the LCD panel and open it again, it takes about one minute for the
correct remaining battery time in minutes to be displayed.
Time code (for tapes recorded in the Digital8 system only)
•When you play back tapes recorded in the Hi8 /standard 8 mm system, the
tape counter appears on the screen.
•The time code indicates the recording or playback time, “0:00:00” (hours:minutes:
seconds) in CAMERA mode and “0:00:00:00” (hours:minutes:seconds:frames) in VCR
mode. You cannot rewrite only the time code. You cannot reset the time code or the
tape counter.
Data code
The data code (date/time or various settings when recorded) are not displayed while
recording. However, they are recorded automatically onto tape. To display the data
code, press DATA CODE on the Remote Commander during playback (p. 47).
