Enjoying your camcorder " OPTION MENU" enables you to access functions directly Just a touch on the screen during shooting or playback displays the functions available at that moment. You will find it easy to make various settings. See page 26 for further details. When deleting a movie with HD (high definition) image quality, for example I want be sure which movie I am deleting. What should I do? Turn on the OPTION MENU when you are viewing images, then try [DELETE]. You can delete the image on the screen. (OPTION) Uh huh, the OPTION MENU items are different, depending on what I'm doing. 21
