You can set the B.E.S.T. (Biconditional Equalised Signal Tracking) system to
"ON" or "OFF" ( pg. 41).
This feature helps you to adjust the playback picture quality according to your
preference. Normally select "AUTO".
AUTO: Provides the optimised picture benefits of the B.E.S.T. Picture
System.
EDIT: Minimizes picture degradation during editing (recording and
playback).
SOFT: Reduces image coarseness when viewing overplayed tapes
containing a lot of noise.
SHARP: Clearer, sharper-edged picture when viewing images with lots
of flat, same-coloured surfaces such as cartoons.
NOTES:
When you select "EDIT", "SOFT" or "SHARP", the selected mode will not change until
you select another mode.
When you select "EDIT" to dub tapes, be sure to select "AUTO" after you finish
dubbing the tapes.
When "B.E.S.T." is "OFF", "PICTURE CONTROL" switches automatically from "AUTO"
to "NORM".
When this function is set to "ON", the Digital 3R picture system applies edge
correction to the luminance signal to enhance detail.
NOTES:
Normally it is recommended to keep "DIGITAL 3R" set to "ON".
Depending on the type of tape being used, picture quality may be better with "DIGITAL
3R" set to "OFF".
If you use the recorder as the source player for editing, be sure to set "DIGITAL 3R" to
"OFF" before starting.
Your recorder is equipped with the Digital TBC (Time Base Corrector) that
removes jitter from fluctuating video signals to deliver a stable picture even with
old tapes and rental cassettes.
The on/off of Digital 3-DNR (Noise Reduction) which cuts noise and enables
clear picture reproduction is also linked to this function.
We recommend that you set "DIGITAL TBC/NR" to "ON" when...
... playing back a tape recorded on a camcorder.
... playing back a tape repeatedly used.
... using this video recorder as the source player for editing.
NOTES:
If you play back a tape recorded under poor TV reception condition, the picture may
become more stable with Digital TBC/NR set to off.
When "DIGITAL TBC/NR" is set to "ON", if you play back a tape where certain types of
signals are recorded (using a PC or some character generators), the playback picture
may be distorted. If this is the case, set "DIGITAL TBC/NR" to "OFF".
When playing back a MESECAM tape, Digital TBC/NR does not function even though
"DIGITAL TBC/NR" is set to "ON".
* The default setting is bold in the table below.
