The Cassette Memory indicator or
title display does not appear while
using a cassette with Cassette
Memory.
• This camcorder does not support Cassette
Memory, so the indicator does not appear.
The remaining tape indicator is not
displayed.
• Set [ REMAIN] to [ON] to always
display the remaining tape indicator (p. 40).
The cassette is noisier during
rewinding or fast-forwarding.
• When using the AC Adaptor, rewind/fast
forward speed increases (compared with
battery operation) and therefore increases
noise. This is not a malfunction.
The tape does not start when you
press REC START/STOP.
• Slide the POWER switch repeatedly to turn
on the CAMERA lamp (p. 19).
• The tape has reached the end. Rewind it, or
insert a new cassette.
• Set the write-protect tab to REC or insert a
new cassette (p. 58).
• The tape is stuck to the drum due to
moisture condensation. Remove the
cassette and leave your camcorder for at
least 1 hour, then re-insert the cassette
(p. 61).
You cannot record a smooth
transition on a tape from the last
recorded scene to the next.
• Perform [END SCH] (p. 24).
• Do not remove the cassette. (The picture
will be recorded continuously without a

• Do not record pictures in SP mode and LP
mode on the same tape.
• Avoid stopping then recording a movie in
the LP mode.
[END SCH] does not work.
• Do not eject the cassette after recording
(p. 24).

sections of the tape. This is not a
malfunction.

for auto focus. Adjust the focus manually
(p. 28).

• Set [STEADYSHOT] to [ON] (p. 37).
The BACK LIGHT function does not
function.
• In the following settings, the BACK
LIGHT function is canceled.

during Easy Handycam operation (p. 18).
A vertical band appears when

in the dark.

subject and the background is too high.
This is not a malfunction.
