Recording –
Playback
By pressing the PLAY/PAUSE button, you can review any
length of recording on the viewfinder screen in black and
white or in color on the color LCD. There are two other
ways to review the recording.
• Recording review: You can view the last 2 seconds of
the recording on the viewfinder screen in black and
white or in color on the color LCD.
• Color playback: You can see the recording in color on a
color video monitor without the need for any external
adaptor.
You may also view the picture during a fast forward or
reverse search.
See 2-3 “Audio Functions” on page 25 for details about
the switches and controls used to select the audio output
signal and to adjust the audio level.
3-3-1 Checking the Last Two
Seconds of the Recording —
Recording Review
If you press the RET button on the lens while recording is
paused, the last two seconds of the recording is played
back on the viewfinder screen and the color LCD. Use this
function to check whether recording went smoothly. If you
hold down the RET button, the last recorded clip is played
back from its beginning. After playback, the camcorder is
ready to start recording again.
By assigning the the same function as that of the LENS
RET button on the lens to the ASSIGN 1/3/4 switch, you
can use the switch in the same way as the lens RET button.
For details, see 6-3-5 “Assigning Functions to ASSIGN 1/
2/3/4 Switches” on page 96.

the Color Video Monitor —

connector of the camcorder. By pressing the PLAY/
PAUSE button, you can view the recorded picture.
When the CBK-SD01 extension board (not supplied) is
installed, you can connect a color video monitor provided
with an SDI input connector.
