g Although the picture quality of material shot in the
LP mode is not bad, mosaic-like noise may appear,
limitations may apply to some of the memory func-
tions and/or regular playback may not be possible
when:
• a tape shot in the LP mode using this camera-
recorder is played back in another digital video unit;
• a tape shot in the LP mode using another digital
video unit is played back in this camera-recorder;
• a tape shot in the LP mode using this camera-
recorder is played back in another digital video unit
that does not have an LP mode capability;
• slow or frame-feed playback is performed; or
• an image search is conducted
g Audio dubbing cannot be performed in the LP mode
as the tracks on the tape are narrower than the

pointing upward, then fit it into place.
