Troubleshooting (Q&A) Problems during various kinds of video recording Q1: No automatic focusing A1-1: Has the manual focus mode been set? The focus is adjusted automatically in the auto focus mode. (See page 12) A1-2: Is a scene which is hard to bring into focus in the auto focus mode being shot? Some scenes are hard to bring into focus using auto focus. In cases like this, use the manual focus mode instead for focusing. Scenes hard to bring into focus OShooting both distant and close-up subjects OShooting subjects through dirty window panes O Shooting subjects in dark locations OShooting while objects that glitter or dazzle are around the subject O Shooting fast-moving subjects O Shooting subjects with minimal contrast Editing-related problems Q1: No audio dubbing. A1-1: Has the accidental erasure prevention knob on the cassette tape been set to "SAVE?" If it has, recording cannot be performed. (See page 23) A1-2: Has an attempt been made to edit parts shot in the LP mode? Audio dubbing cannot be performed as the track width on the tape is narrower than the head width in the LP mode. Display-related problems Q1: Something is wrong with the time code display. A1: When the reverse slow playback mode is set, the count shown on the time code display becomes inconsistent; however, this is normal and not indicative of malfunctioning. Q2: The remaining tape display does not match the actual amount of tape remaining. A2-1: The remaining tape is not displayed accurately with continuous shooting sessions lasting less than 30 seconds. A2-2: A display which is two to three minutes less than the actual tape remaining time sometimes appears. Playback-related problems (video) Q1: No playback, even when the play button is pressed. A1: Has the CAMERA/VCR button been pressed and has the VCR lamp lighted? If the VCR lamp is not lighted, playbackrelated operations cannot be performed. (See page 11) Q2: Mosaic-type noise is generated during cue and review. A2: This is a phenomenon inherent to digital video. It is not indicative of malfunctioning. Q3: No playback images are seen even though the camera recorder is connected with the TV set correctly. A3: Is the TV set's input selector at "video input?" Read through the operating instructions of the TV set, and select the video input connector to which the camera recorder has been connected. Q4: The playback images are not displayed clearly. A4: Are the camera recorder's heads dirty? If they are dirty, the playback images will not be displayed clearly. 66
