Smear 15^

A luminous bar appears vertically on the screen where an
excessively bright scene was recorded.
Smear is caused when:

• Spotlights are directly recorded, on a stage for example.

• Burning candles or other burning objects are recorded directly.

• Objects reflecting light, such as car bodies and traffic signs, are

recorded directly.

Poor playback picture on TV monitor

Loss in video playback picture quality such as blurring, distortion or

noise usually means that the video heads have become dirty. Use

the optional Canon 8mm Video Head Cleaning Cassette CC-8

included in the Canon 8mm Video Cleaning Kit CK-E1 to clean

video heads. See CC-8 instruction manual for details.

Note:

This equipment contains a microprocessor. If external noise or interference occurs, random letters may

appear in the viewfinder or normal operation may be interrupted. In this case, remove power source (and

if necessary, remove the lithium battery) and then replace.
