POSSIBLE CAUSES
27. • In places subject to low
temperature, images become
dark due to the characteristics
of the LCD monitor. When
this happens, the displayed
colors differ from those that
are actually recorded. This is
not a defect of the camcorder.
• When the LCD monitor's
fluorescent light reaches the end
of its service life, images on the
LCD monitor become dark.
Consult your nearest JVC dealer.
28. • The light used to illuminate
the LCD monitor causes it to
become hot.
29. • This may occur when the
surface or the edge of the LCD

certain modes of Program AE
with special effects, "DIS" and

high-precision technology.
However, black spots or bright
spots of light (red, green or
blue) may appear constantly
on the LCD monitor or the

recorded on the tape. This is
not due to any defect of the
unit. (Effective dots: more than
