Quick Start Function When you close the LCD panel with the camcorder on, the camcorder enters the standby mode. In standby mode the camcorder consumes only about half the power used when recording, saving energy when you are using a battery pack. Additionally, when you open the LCD panel, the camcorder is ready to start recording in approximately 1 second*, ensuring you do not miss important shooting opportunities. * The actual time required varies depending on the shooting conditions. 1 With the camcorder on and in a recording mode, close the LCD panel. • If you are using the viewfinder and the LCD panel is closed, press VIEWFINDER to enter the standby mode. • A beep will sound and the indicator will change to orange to indicate the camcorder entered the standby mode. 2 When you wish to resume recording, open the LCD panel. • The indicator turns back green and the camcorder is ready to record. • You can also press VIEWFINDER to resume recording using the viewfinder with the LCD panel closed. IMPORTANT Do not disconnect the power source during standby mode (while the indicator is lit in orange). NOTES • If you close the LCD panel under some circumstances (for example, while the ACCESS indicator is flashing or a menu is being displayed), the camcorder may not enter standby mode. Check that the indicator changes to orange. • The camcorder will shut off if left in standby mode for 10 minutes, regardless of the [Power Saving Mode] setting ( 98). Press ON/OFF to turn on the camcorder. • You can select the length of time until shut-off or turn off the Quick Start function altogether with the [Quick Start] setting ( 98). • Changing the position of the mode dial while the camcorder is in standby mode will reactivate the camcorder in the operating mode selected. Reviewing and Deleting the Last Scene Recorded Even in mode you can play back the last scene recorded in order to check it. You can also delete the scene while reviewing it. 37
