Ejecting the Cassette

³If the AC Adaptor or Battery is used to supply power,

it is possible to insert or eject the cassette without

turning on the Movie Camera.

Insert the cassette with

its window in position

´ LP Mode

The desired recording speed can be

selected with [REC SPEED] on the

[RECORDING SETUP] Sub-Menu. (p. 18)

If you select the LP Mode, the possible

recording time is 1.5 times as long as in

the SP Mode.

Recording in the LP mode does not

deteriorate the picture quality. However, the

playback picture may contain mosaic-like

patterns and certain functions may be

restricted.

³As the recording track width in the LP Mode

is smaller than the head width, recording

new sound onto an already recorded

cassette (audio dubbing) (p. 64) is not

possible.

³In the following cases, mosaic-like patterns

may appear in the playback picture, or the

picture may not be played back correctly:

When a cassette recorded in the LP Mode

on this Movie Camera is played back on

other digital video equipment.

When a cassette recorded in the LP Mode

on other digital video equipment is played

back on this Movie Camera.

When a cassette recorded in the LP Mode

on this Movie Camera is played back on

digital video equipment not featuring the

LP Mode.

In the Slow Motion or Still Advance

Playback Mode. (p. 36)

When using the Camera Search Function.

(p. 40)

³When inserting the cassette, make sure it faces in the

right direction and then push it in until it stops.

³When you insert a cassette onto which you have

recorded before, use the Camera Search Function

(p. 40) to search for the position from which you want

to continue recording.

³When you insert a new cassette, rewind the tape to

the beginning before starting to record.

completely and then open it again.

Preventing Accidental Erasure of Recordings

Opening the cassette’s erasure prevention slider 3

(sliding it in the direction of the [SAVE] arrow) prevents

recording. To record again, close the erasure

prevention slider (slide it in the direction of the [REC]

arrow).

When opening or closing the Cassette

Compartment, push down the buckle

4 of the

Grip Belt in the direction of the arrow so that it

does not obstruct the opening and closing of the

Cassette Compartment.

³Otherwise the Grip Belt may prevent the Cassette

Compartment from opening completely, or it may

get caught under the Cassette Compartment Cover

and prevent it from closing properly.

For example a camera that produces images of 1280x960 pixels has a resolution of about 1,3MP.

How can I prevent 'red eyes' in my pictures? Verified

The 'red eye' phenomenon is caused by too much light in too little time getting to eyes of the people in the picture. This effect is even stronger in a dark atmosphere. The following can be done to prevent it: don't let people look directly into the camera, create more light, take the picture closer to the subject or decrease the use of the zoom function.
