providing
three times the recording
time.

recording,
the playback
picture will be blurred at
the switching
point.

of 50X or 600X digital
magnification.
When set to "OFF" only optical zoom (maximum
16x magnification)
can function.
MAX: To record a subject in a darkly lit
environment,
when it is more convenient
to shoot
the subject with a brighter
image even if the picture
becomes
slightly coarse.

To record a subject
in a dimly lit
environment,
when it is more convenient
to shoot
with a less coarse picture although
the subject
becomes
slightly dark.
OFF: Allows you to shoot dark scenes with no
picture brightness
adjustment.
WIDe:
When set to "ON" black bars will be recorded
at the
top and bottom of the screen to produce
a cinema-
like "wide-screen"
effect.
While the "WIDE" mode is engaged,
"LARGE"
in
the "TITLE SETUP
(SIZE)" (_.
pg. 19, "CAMERA
MENU")
cannot be selected.
• With some tapes, better picture quality
may not
be obtained
even with S-VHS ET recording.
It is
recommended
that you do test record beforehand
to make sure whether
better results can be
obtained.
• If the S-VHS ET mode or recording
format is
switched
during recording,
the playback
picture
will be blurred at the switching
point.
• It is recommended
that tapes recorded
on this
camcorder
be played back on this camcorder.
• Tapes recorded
in S-VHS or S-VHS ET mode can
be played
back not only on this camcorder
but
also on a Super VHS VCR.
-- Tapes recorded
in S-VHS ET mode cannot be
played back on some VCRs, including some
JVC VCRs.
• Tapes recorded
in S-VHS or S-VHS ET mode
cannot
be played
back correctly
on a normal VHS
VCR.
• S-VHS ET does not work with S-VHS tapes.
• To avoid on-screen
noise, do not perform Still
Playback
or Shuttle Search
repeatedly.
• If the picture contains
a lot of jitter or noise, use a
cleaning
cassette.
ON: With an S-VHS cassette,
"S" appears
and the
camcorder
records in S-VHS.
With a VHS cassette,
"S-ET" appears
and the
camcorder
records with S-VHS
picture quality,
which is called Super VHS ET (Expansion
Technology).
S-VHS REC appears
during
recording.
OFF: Records in VHS on a VHS or S-VHS
cassette.
• JVC EHG (Extra High Grade) tapes are
recommended
for superior
results.
Use S-VHS tape for storing recordings
for an
extended
period or for recording
important
scenes,
as it enables
higher-quality
recording
and
playback.
