Checking movie quality mode
You can check whether movie quality mode is FINE
or STND by reviewing the on-screen information.
The setting of movie quality mode will not change when the DVD camera/recorder
is turned off. After recording with "STND", it is recommended that you return the
mode to "FINE" and then turn the DVD camera/recorder off, unless you always
record with "STND".

lect dial to adjust the exposure.
