• The time code stops advancing while time data is being set (when the
F-RUN/SET/R-RUN switch is set to SET). For this reason, if you start
recording immediately after switching to F-RUN or R-RUN (i.e., to a
position other than SET), you may overwrite a portion of the
previously recorded time code.
Turning off the camera
• When the power is turned off during recording, the camera will switch
off by itself after the tape has run for a few seconds.
• If you remove the battery, pull out the DC cable, or cut power to the
AC adaptor during recording, actual recording of picture data ends the
instant the tape is stopped. However, a certain amount of recorded
picture data, equal to that recorded during the Loop Rec time, will be
lost, because it has not yet been recorded on the tape before the tape
stops. For this reason, make sure you do not change the battery while
recording.
When the tape runs out during recording
Please note that if the tape runs out and the camcorder stops during
recording, a certain amount of recorded picture data, equal to that
recorded during the Loop Rec time, will be lost, because it has not yet
been recorded on the tape.
