How to Change Camera Modes & Record Settings
The camcorder's operating modes are indicated with a bar of
icons. A full icon in blue indicates that the function described
can be used that particular operating mode.
Movie Format
Refers to AVCHD or MP4 recordings. You can change the
movie format from the
Recording Setup menu.
Recording
When you open the LCD panel or press ON/OFF, the
camcorder will turn on in recording mode. The shooting mode
icons in the operating modes bar are the same icons used in
the shooting mode selection screen.
When you have finished recording
Close the LCD panel or press ON/OFF to turn off the
camcorder.
Slide the lens cover switch up. To protect the lens, keep the
lens cover closed when you are not recording.
Be sure to save your recordings regularly.
If you plan on making a long recording while the camera is in
a fixed position, such as mounted on a tripod, you can record
with the LCD panel closed in order to conserve the battery's
power.
