≥Subjects with shiny surfaces or a lot of light
reflection
≥Subjects with weak contrast
≥Subjects with part of it near and part of it far
away from the Movie Camera
≥Subjects without vertical contours
≥Subjects with fast movement
≥Subjects behind moving objects
≥Subjects behind glass covered by dirt, dust or
water drops
ª Digital Effect Functions
≥As the magnification of digital zoom increases,
the quality of image may deteriorate.
ª Interval Recording
≥Before performing other operations following
Interval Recording, make sure the Interval
Recording Mode is deactivated.
≥The Interval Recording Mode is cancelled
when the Movie Camera is turned off.
ª Motion Sensor Function
≥When you use the Motion Sensor Function, it
is recommended that you use the AC Adaptor.
≥Depending on the colour, size, or movement of
the recording subject, the Motion Sensor may
not function properly.
≥When setting the Motion Sensor Function, the
recording and search functions are disabled.
≥You cannot record the beginning of the
movement.
≥To prevent accidental recording start caused
by Movie Camera movement, the Movie
Camera should be mounted on a tripod or be
otherwise secured in a very stable position.
≥Although you can select a digital effect on the
[DIGITAL EFFECT] Sub-Menu when
[MOTION SENSOR] on the
[CAMERA SETUP] Sub-Menu is set to [ON],
the Motion Sensor Function has priority and
the selected digital effect is automatically
cancelled.
≥When you use the AC Adaptor to power the
Movie Camera, the Motion Sensor Stand-by
Mode will continue when no movement is
detected in the picture, even when the tape
has reached the end during recording.
≥To ensure correct functioning of the Motion
Sensor Function, the moving subject should
be quite large in the picture. Therefore, when
you have zoomed the lens to the maximum
wide-angle position, the distance between lens
and subject should preferably be within about
2 metres. For subjects at larger distances, be
sure to zoom in accordingly.
≥If there is a power interruption, the Motion
Sensor Function is cancelled.
