Hi-Fi (Stereo) sound
stereo sound can be recorded on the Hi-Fi audio track
via the built-in stereo microphone. At the same time,
mono sound is recorded on the normal sound track,
making it possible for a tape recorded on this
Camcorder to be played back on a mono-type
Camcorder or VCR.
Index signal (VISS)
The recording of index signals at the beginning of and
during recordings makes possible the use of the VHS
index search or the intro scan function when playing
back the tape on a VCR equipped with these functions.
An index signal is recorded when one of the following
operations is performed.
• When recording is started for the first time after the
Camcorder is turned on.
• When recording is restarted after the cassette is
exchanged or the tape is played back.
In each of these cases, the “INDEX” indication will
flash for a few seconds in the electronic viewfinder
(EVF).
• When recording index signals, space the signals at
least 5 minutes in the LP mode and 2 minutes in
the SP mode.
