Tape Length/Recording Mode Setting

SET TAPE LENGTH

the tape used. T20 = 20 minutes of recording time,
T30 = 30 minutes, and T40 = 40 minutes (in SP).
SET RECORDING MODE

Set depending on your preference. "SP" (Standard
Play) provides higher picture and sound quality and
is better for dubbing, while "EP" (Extended Play) is
more economical, recording at 1/3 the speed of SP.

When the power switch is set to CAMERA and the LCD
monitor is opened at an angle of 60 degrees or more,
the LCD monitor switches on and the viewfinder
switches off automatically to save power.
