Note on the progressive recording mode
In a normal TV broadcast, the screen is
divided into 2 finer fields and these are
displayed in turn, every 1/50 of a second.
Thus, the actual picture displayed in an
instant covers only half of the apparent
picture area. In progressive recording, the
picture is fully displayed with all the pixels.
A picture recorded in this mode appears
clearer, but a moving subject may appear
awkward.
• When recording under fluorescent light or a
light bulb, the screen may flicker. Touch [OFF]
to return to the normal recording.
