easy access. For details about the available menu options and settings, refer to Menu Options (A 183).

Selecting an Option from the Menu

The following is a step-by-step explanation of how to select an option from the menu for most menu items. For
some menu items, refer also to the function's description for additional operations that may be necessary. In the
procedures throughout the rest of this manual, closing the menu is assumed and not included in the procedure.
For brevity's sake, references in the text to settings in the setup menus may be abbreviated as follows:
> [B ! System Setup] > [Language H] > Desired option
1 Press the MENU button.
• The menu opens with the orange selection frame indicating the menu item that was selected the previous
time the menu was closed (unless the camcorder was turned off).
2 Push the joystick left/right to select the desired setup menu and "page" number.
• When a menu item is selected (highlighted in orange), pushing the joystick left/right will browse through the
pages one at a time. To change setup menus faster, push the joystick up/down or press the CANCEL button
until an icon is selected, and then push the joystick left/right.
