NOTES:
IWhen you use the LCD monitor outdoors in direct sunlight, the LCD monitor may be difficult to see. If this
happens, use the viewfinder instead.
IThe image will not appear simultaneously in the LCD monitor and the viewfinder except during Interface
Shooting.
IThe cassette holder cannot be opened unless a power supply is attached.
IThere may be a delay after you open the cassette holder cover until the cassette holder opens. Do not use force.
IOnce the cassette holder is closed, it recedes automatically. Wait until it recedes completely before closing
the cassette holder cover.
IThe time required to calculate and display the remaining tape length, and the accuracy of the calculation,
may vary according to the type of tape used.
IOTAPE END� appears when the tape reaches its end, and the power goes off automatically if left in this
condition for 5 minutes. OTAPE END� also appears when a cassette at its end is loaded.
IIf the Record-Standby mode continues for 5 minutes, the camcorderOs power shuts off automatically. To turn
the camcorder on again, push back and pull out the viewfinder again or close and re-open the LCD monitor.
IWhen a blank portion is left between recorded scenes on the tape, the time code is interrupted and errors
may occur when editing the tape. To avoid this, refer to ORecording from the middle of a tape� ( pg. 21).
IDuring recording, sound is not heard from the speaker. To hear the sound, connect optional headphones to
the PHONE connector. The sound volume is at the level it was adjusted to during playback ( pg. 38).
I To turn the tally lamp or beep sounds off, pg. 26, 29.
JOURNALISTIC SHOOTING
In some situations, different shooting angles may provide
more dramatic results. Hold the camcorder in the desired
position and tilt the LCD monitor in the most convenient
direction. It can rotate 270! (90! downward, 180!
upward).
INTERFACE SHOOTING
The person you shoot can view himself/herself in the LCD
monitor, and you can even shoot yourself while viewing
your own image in the LCD monitor.
Open the LCD monitor and tilt it upward to 180! so that it
faces forward. When the LCD monitor is tilted upward to
an angle of over approx. 105!, the monitor image is
inverted vertically. If the viewfinder is pulled out at that
time, it also switches on.
Point the lens toward the subject (yourself when self-
recording) and start recording.
Self-RecordingDuring Interface Shooting, the monitor image and
indications do not appear inverted as they would when
viewing a mirror.
NOTES:
IDuring Interface Shooting, the OTape Running� indicator
and warning indications ( pg. 87, 88) are the only
ones that are shown; they appear reversed in the display
as they would when viewing a mirror, but are not
reversed in the recording.
IThe tape remaining indicator does not appear during
interface shooting. However, when the remaining time
reaches 2 minutes, the indicator appears showing the
remaining time: (blinking)
