Camera Recording Note on the tape counter The tape counter indicates the recording or playback time. Use it as a guide. There will be a time lag of several seconds from the actual time. To set the counter to zero, press COUNTER RESET. Note on the AUTO DATE feature • The AUTO DATE feature works once a day. However, the date may automatically appear more than once a day when: - you reset the date and time. - you eject and insert the tape again. - you stop recording within 10 seconds. • Once the AUTO DATE feature turns off the date display 10 seconds after the start of recording, the date and time are displayed as follows: - If the date display setting has been made, the date is displayed. - If the time display setting has been made, the time is displayed. - If neither display setting has been made, nothing is displayed. If you wear glasses You can bend back the eyecup to get a better view of the viewfinder. When moving from indoors to outdoors (or vice versa) Turn STANDBY up and point the camcorder at a white object for about I5 seconds so that the.white balance is properly adjusted. Note on recording When you record from the beginning of a tape, run the tape for about 15 seconds before starting the actual recording. This will ensure that you won't miss any start-up scenes when you playback the tape. You can record tapes in SP (standard play) mode only. Preventing Accidental Erasure To prevent accidental erasure, slide the tab on the cassette to expose the red mark. If you try to record with the red mark exposed, the EVI and indicators flash in the viewfinder, and you cannot record. To re-record on this tape, slide the tab back out covering the red mark.
