Helpful Hints for Recording

if the tape reaches near the end during recording

The 0^ indicator and the red lamp in the viewfinder and the camera recording/battery
iamp on the camcorder blink slowly. When the tape reaches its end, blinking becomes
rapid and beeps sound for about five seconds (if BEEP is set to ON).

Notes on recording

• To record from the beginning of the tape, run the beginning of the tape for about 15 seconds

before recording. This will avoid missing the starling point when the tape is played back.

• When moving from indoors to outdoors, or vice versa, turn STANDBY up and point the

camcorder at a white object for about 10 seconds so that the white balance is properly
adjusted.

Note on standby mode

If you leave the camcorder in the standby mode for 5 minutes or more, the camcorder will

be automatically turned off. To resume the standby mode, turn STANDBY down and turn it
up again. To start recording, press START/STOP directly.

Note on light sources

If you are shooting a subject in bright conditions just after shooting in a dark place, the picture

may not appear in the viewfinder. In this case, point the camcorder in the other direction.
