Self Recording
Available modes:
TAPE-CAMERA, CARD-CAMERA
Rotate the LCD monitor 180° vertically so that
the screen faces the other way and the subject
can monitor the shot while you are recording.
If the camcorder is steadied, you can record
yourself in the scene by watching yourself on
the LCD monitor. The remote control (only
supplied with VL-NZ10) is useful for such
occasions.
1
Set the Media Selection switch to TAPE
or CARD.
2
Set the Power switch to CAMERA.
3
Rotate the monitor section 180°
vertically.
• A mirror image of the subject displays
on the LCD monitor.
4
Begin recording.
Cautions:
• Do not rotate the monitor section to the self
recording position during recording or playback.
• For recording in Self Recording mode, be sure to
rotate the monitor section, NOT the lens section.
If you hold the camcorder upside down with the
lens at the bottom, the subject will be recorded
upside down.
More Information on Self Recording
• Use the remote control (only supplied with VL-
NZ10) to begin/stop recording.
• The screen image automatically inverts when the
monitor rotation is between 135° and 200°. When
the monitor section is turned back to the normal
position, the image returns to normal.
• You can play back images while the monitor is in
the self recording position. Set the camcorder to
TAPE-VCR mode. The Operation button still
retains its function as during normal playback,
for example, m on the Operation button works
as the Play button.
