QUICK REC (Quick recording)
You can slightly reduce the recording start
point time when you start recording by
pressing START/STOP. This function is
useful to compensate for time lapse at the
click of the shutter.
B OFF
Takes more time to reach the recording
start point, but a smooth transition can be
recorded.
ON ( )
Slightly reduces the time it takes to start
recording when you attempt to record right
after you switch on the camcorder (set the
POWER switch to CAMERA-TAPE from
the OFF (CHG) position), or when you
attempt to record when the recording
stanby mode is canceled.
b Notes
• If [QUICK REC] is set to [ON], the interval
between scenes freezes for a moment (editing on
your computer is recommended).
z Tips
• If the recording standby mode continues more
than approximately 3 minutes, the drum will
stop rolling, and the standby mode is canceled.
This is to protect the tape and to prevent from
unnecessarily battery exhausting.
