INDEX SIGNAL RECORDING

- 26 -

QUICK EDIT (Edit Search)

The quick edit feature allows you to search for the end of previously recorded material, or find a particular spot
on your tape, to begin your editing, or recording new material. Quick edit is used while the camcorder is in the
record/pause (stand-by) mode. By holding down "F.FWD", "REW/REVIEW", or "PLAY" you can visually
search or play your tape. Releasing the buttons ("F.FWD", "REW/REVIEW", or "PLAY") immediately stops the
tape at that position.
INDEX SIGNAL RECORDING
Indexing your tapes while recording makes it easy to find desired program segments when you play back the
tape in a VCR that has a compatible indexing feature called the "VHS Index Search System". See your VCR's
instruction manual for index playback instructions.
"INDEX" signals are recorded when the following operations are performed.
• When the power is turned on about 4 hours after it is switched off and then recording is started.
• When the power is turned on after the date is changed to the next day with the power off and then recording is
started.
NOTE: When "DISPLAY" is pressed and "INDEX" is displayed in the viewfinder, an "INDEX" signal is
recorded when recording is started, and when the "INDEX" signal has been recorded, "INDEX" disappears.

TITLE RECORDING

You can easily create and record personalized titles on your videos with the camcorder's built-in titler.
Once a title is stored, it can be displayed and recorded at anytime. A title contains two lines of up to 16
characters per line.
The titler contains 47 different characters for creating titles.
NOTE: A cassette cannot be loaded or ejected when creating a title.
