Notes and Hints
ª Concerning the Power Supply
≥The AC Adaptor features automatic universal
voltage adjustment (AC 110–240 V, 50/60 Hz),
therefore, there is no need for any manual
voltage adjustment for use in other countries.
≥If the [CHARGE] Lamp does not flash even
though the Battery is attached and the AC
Adaptor is connected, remove the Battery and
then re-attach it.
≥Charge the Battery at a room temperature
between 10oC and 30oC.
≥When the Movie Camera is used for a long
time, the Camera body becomes warm, but
this is not a malfunction.
≥During recording or charging, the Battery
becomes warm. However, this is normal.
≥To ensure precise indication of the remaining
battery power, always use a fully charged
Battery when attaching a Battery.
ª Charging Lamp [CHARGE]
≥Flashing: During charging
≥Flashing with [CAMERA] Lamp: When error
occurs
≥Lit: VCR Mode
≥Off: The Battery is fully charged.
ª Inserting the Cassette
≥You will hear noise of tightening the tape when
you insert the cassette, and noise of rewinding
the tape when you close the cassette
compartment. However, this is not a
malfunction.
≥In the case of using a previously recorded
Cassette, you can use the Camera Search
Function to find the position where you want to
continue recording.
≥If a new Cassette is inserted, rewind to the
beginning of the tape before starting
recording.
≥When inserting the cassette, make sure it
faces in the right direction and then push it in
until it stops.

ª Using the LCD Monitor
≥Return the LCD Monitor to its vertical position
before closing it. Also, make sure that the
Cassette Compartment is securely closed
before closing the LCD Monitor.
≥Opening the LCD Monitor automatically turns
the Viewfinder off. However, when you turn the
LCD Monitor so that it faces forward, the
Viewfinder turns on again.
≥When the Movie Camera is very cold when
turning it on, the picture on the LCD Monitor is
darker than normally. However, as it reaches
normal temperature, it regains its normal
brightness.
≥To remove fingerprints, wipe the LCD Monitor
with a soft cloth.
≥Do not push the LCD Monitor hard. If it is
pushed hard, finger marks etc. may remain on
teh Monitor for a while.Though it disappears
naturally, please set the [CAMERA/OFF/VCR]
Switch to [OFF], then turn on the power again
for quick recovery.
≥Do not expose the LCD Monitor to direct
sunlight. When sunlight falls onto the LCD
Monitor, it may be difficult to view the picture.
ª Using the Menus
≥Do not turn off the power while performing a
menu operation.
≥Turn the [34] Dial slowly. If you turn it fastly,
selecting the item may stop halfway.
ª Recording

correctly.
ª Camera Search

may appear in the picture.
ª Recording Yourself

Date, Time and/or Title Indication in the Mirror
Mode.
Even if the LCD Monitor is rotated frontward,
in the following cases, the Viewfinder turns
off:
≥Changing from the Camera to the VCR Mode.
≥Closing the LCD Monitor with the screen
facing outward.
ª Zoom In/Out Functions
≥The further you push the [W/T] Lever toward
[W] or [T], the faster the zooming speed
becomes.
≥When you are zooming on a faraway subject,
a sharper focus is achieved if the recording
subject is 1.8 metres or more away from the
Lens.
≥When using the Macro Close-up Function, we
recommend that you use the IR/Video DC
Light (optional), etc. rather than the 0 Lux
Night View Function to brighten up the scene.
ª Super Image Stabilizer Function
≥The Super Image Stabilizer Function does not
operate in a dimly lit place. In this case, the
[[] Indication flashes.
≥Under fluorescent lighting, image brightness
may change or colours may not look natural.
