3.9.1 Tally indicators

The red tally indicators at the front of the viewfinder and at the rear camcorder normally light to

When this switch is set to the Off position, the tally lights do not light when the camcorder is
recording. The rear tally lights can be programmed to follow the Tally on/off switch in the
