POSSIBLE CAUSES
23. • When shooting in the dark,
the unit becomes highly
sensitive to light and the
image takes on an effect
similar to Slow Shutter.
24. • The Picture Wipe or Dissolve
function is in use.
25. • The Sepia or Monotone mode
is activated.
26. • This is a result of exceedingly
high contrast, and is not a
malfunction.
27. • This is not a malfunction.
28. • "DATE/TIME" is set to "OFF"
in the Menu Screen.
29. • Files stored in the memory
card are protected.
30. • "TIME CODE" is set to "OFF"
in the Menu Screen.
31. • In places subject to low
temperature, images become
dark due to the characteristics
of the LCD monitor. When
this happens, the displayed
colours differ from those that
are actually recorded. This is
not a defect of the camcorder.
• When the LCD monitor's
fluorescent light reaches the
end of its service life, images
on the LCD monitor become
dark. Consult your nearest
JVC dealer.
32. • The light used to illuminate
the LCD monitor causes it to
become hot.
33. • This may occur when the
surface or the edge of the LCD
monitor is pressed.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
23. • If you want the lighting to
look more natural, set "GAIN
UP" to "AGC" or "OFF" in the
Menu Screen ( pg. 39).
24. • Do not try to use the Classic
Film or Strobe mode during a
scene transition (
48).
25. • Turn off Sepia or Monotone
