• Observe the following precautions while
the DISC access indicator is on or
flashing. Failing to do so may result in
permanent data loss.
- Do not subject the camcorder to
vibrations or strong impacts.
- Do not open the disc cover and do not
remove the disc.
- Do not disconnect the power source or
turn off the camcorder.
- Do not change the operating mode.
NOTES
• About the recording time: By changing the
recording mode you can change the
recording time available on the disc
(31).
• About the Power Save mode: To save power
when the camcorder is powered by a
battery pack, the camcorder will
automatically shut off if left without any
operations for 5 minutes ( 68). To
restore the power, turn the switch
toward MODE and release it, or turn the
switch to and back to ON
again.
• When recording in very loud places (such
as fireworks shows or concerts), sound
may become distorted or it may not be
recorded at the actual levels. This is not
a malfunction.
• The following may take longer with a disc
in VR mode than a disc in VIDEO mode.
- The time between turning on the
camcorder and being able to record.
- The time between turning the
switch to and the camcorder
shutting off.
Using the viewfinder
When recording in bright places it
may be difficult to use the LCD
screen. In such case, change the
brightness of the LCD screen ( 26)
or use the viewfinder instead. To use
the viewfinder, keep the LCD panel
closed*.
Adjust the viewfinder as necessary
with the dioptric adjustment lever.
* The LCD screen and the viewfinder
can be used simultaneously when the
LCD panel is turned 180 degrees to
face the subject ( 26).
About the mode switch and recording programs
Set the mode switch to to let the
camcorder adjust all the settings for you,
allowing you to just point the camcorder and
start shooting.
Set the mode switch to to select one of the recording programs.
The Special Scene recording programs ( 37) offer a convenient
way to select the optimal settings to match special recording
conditions. Conversely, with flexible recording programs ( 39) you
can set the shutter speed you want, or enjoy the flexibility to change other
settings.
