Camera recording
Note on the beep sound
Note that the beep sound is not recorded on the tape. If you do not want to hear the beep
sound, select OFF in the menu system.
Note on remaining tape indicator
The indicator may not be displayed accurately depending on the tape. Though the indicator
does not appear at the time of recording, it will appear in a few seconds.
Attaching the lens hood
To record fine pictures, we recommend you to attach the lens hood, no matter where you
shoot. You can also attach the lens cap when using the lens hood.
If the lens hood is not attached properly
The four corners of the screen may be eclipsed by the lens hood.
Using the zoom feature
Zooming is a recording technique that lets you change the size of the subject in the scene.
For more professional-looking recordings, use the zoom function sparingly.
"T" side: for telephoto (subject appears closer)
"W" side: for wide-angle (subject appears farther away)

Zooming speed (Variable speed zooming)
Press the power zoom lever a little for a relatively slow zoom; press it still more for a high-
speed zoom.
When you shoot a subject using a telephoto zoom
If you cannot get a sharp focus while in extreme telephoto zoom, press the "W" side of the
power zoom lever until the focus is sharp. You can shoot a subject that is at least about
2 5/8 feet (about 80 cm) away from the lens surface in the telephoto position, or about
1/2 inch (about 1 cm) away in the wide-angle position.
