Note on standby mode
If you leave the camcorder for 5 minutes or more with a cassette inserted in Standby
mode, the camcorder goes off automatically. This prevents wearing down the battery
and wearing out the tape. To resume Standby mode, turn STANDBY down once and
turn it up again. To start recording, press START/STOP.

Notes on the recording mode

• This camcorder records and plays back in SP (standard play) mode and in LP (long

play) mode.
The playback quality in LP mode, however, will not be as good as that in SP mode.

• When a tape recorded on this camcorder in LP mode is played back on other types of

8 mm camcorders or VCRs, the playback quality may not be as good as that on this
camcorder.

To focus the viewfinder lens

If the viewfinder is not in focus at all or when you use the camcorder after someone else
has used it, focus the viewfinder lens. Turn the viewfinder lens adjustment ring so that
the indicators in the viewfinder come into sharp focus.

Camera recording

Note on recording
When you record from the beginning of the tape, run the tape for about 15 seconds
before actual recording. This prevents the camcorder from missing any start-up scenes
when you play back the tape.
