Ret Button - Panasonic AJ-SDC915 Operating Instructions Manual

RET Button

The images recorded on the VTR or the return video signals which have been supplied to the
GENLOCK IN/(VIDEO IN) connector can be viewed on the viewfinder screen either when the RET
(return) button is pressed or while it is held down.
What appears on the viewfinder screen differs as shown in the table below depending on the RET
SW setting selected on the "REC (ASPECT)/PB/RET" SUB menu page of MAIN menu page 3 of 4
and on the VTR status.
|Note{
However, when VIDEO has been selected as the REC SIGNAL setting on the "REC (ASPECT)/
PB/RET" SUB menu page (when externally input signals are recorded), the external input will
appear on the viewfinder screen except while the RET button is held down: in the latter case, the
camera image will appear instead on the viewfinder screen.
