'SP'/'LP'/'AUTO'
'SP': Standard Play (normal recording speed)
offers the usual first-class picture quality.
'LP': Long Play (half recording speed, double
recording time). 6 hours can be recorded on a
3-hour cassette (E180) with a somewhat
reduced picture quality.

Play). Otherwise, the recording speed will be
'SP' (Standard Play).
