Selecting the start/stop mode

Your camcorder has two modes besides normal start/stop mode. These modes enable
you to take a series of quick shots resulting in a lively video.

(2) Set START/STOP MODE to the desired mode.
: Recording starts when you press START/STOP, and stops when you press
it again (normal mode).
ANTI GROUND SHOOTING : The camcorder records only while you press
down START/STOP so that you can avoid recording unnecessary scenes.
5SEC : When you press START/STOP, the camcorder records for 5 seconds and
then stops automatically.
(3) Turn STANDBY up and press START/STOP. Recording starts.
If you selected 5SEC, five dots appear in the viewfinder. The dots disappear at a rate
of one per second as illustrated below.
