The recording angle looks different. • The recording angle may look different depending on the mode of your camcorder. This is not a malfunction. The flash does not work. • You cannot record with the flash with: - Capturing still images while shooting a movie - The conversion lens (optional) attached • Even if auto flash or (Auto redeye reduction) is selected, you cannot use the flash with: - NightShot - [SUPER NIGHTSHOT] - [TWILIGHT], [CANDLE], [SUNRISE&SUNSET], [FIREWORKS], [LANDSCAPE], [SPOTLIGHT], [BEACH] or [SNOW] in [SCENE SELECTION] - [MANUAL] in [EXPOSURE] - [SPOT METER] The actual recording time for movie is less than the expected approximate recording time of a disc. • Depending on an object, such as a fast moving object, the time available for recording may shorten (p. 12). The recording stops. • The temperature of your camcorder is extremely high. Turn off your camcorder and leave it for a while in a cool place. • Moisture condensation has occurred with the disc. Turn off your camcorder and leave it about 1 hour in a cool place (p. 106). There is a time difference between the point where you press START/ STOP and the point that the recorded movie starts/stops. • On your camcorder, there may be a slight time difference between the point where you press START/STOP and the actual point that recording movie starts/stops. This is not a malfunction. The movie aspect ratio (16:9/4:3) cannot be changed. • You cannot change the movie aspect ratio if your disc is DVD+RW.
