Time Counter
The time counter display shows the
actual time elapsed when recording a
program or playing back a segment of a
pre-recorded tape.
The time counter also helps you quickly
locate the end of programs. Note the
time counter reading when you are
finished recording or playing back a tape.
For example, you recorded a 10-minute
program. Later, if you want to locate the
end of your recording, you can insert the
tape, display the time counter, and fast
forward the tape until the time counter
reads “0:10:00”.
Before you start to record or play back a
tape, press the DISPLAY button to
display the time counter with the battery
level indicator in the viewfinder. Then
press the RESET button to set the counter
to “0:00:00”.
