It will take several seconds until you can start recording after you turn on the camcorder. You cannot

operate your camcorder during this time.

If you close the LCD screen while recording movies, the camcorder stops recording.

If the ACCESS/access lamp is lit or flashing after recording is finished, it means that data is still being

written onto the recording media. Do not apply shock or vibration to your camcorder, and do not remove

the battery or AC Adaptor.

You can check the recordable time and the remaining capacity, etc., by touching (HOME) 

(MANAGE MEDIA)  [MEDIA INFO] (p. 72).

To adjust the angle of the LCD panel, first open the LCD panel 90 degrees to the camcorder (), and

then adjust the angle (). If you rotate the LCD panel 180 degrees to the lens side (), you can record

movies/photos in mirror mode.

When you make recording with the viewfinder only, pull out the viewfinder (), close the LCD panel,

and adjust the angle to your comfortable position(). If the indicators on the viewfinder appear blurred,

adjust the focus with the viewfinder lens adjustment lever located beneath the viewfinder.

When you open or close the LCD screen, or adjust the angle, be careful not to press the buttons on the

side of the LCD screen by mistake.

Tips

You can record photos during movie recording by pressing PHOTO ([Dual Rec], p. 35).

When a face is detected, a white frame appears and the image quality around the face is optimized

automatically ([FACE DET. SETTING], p. 86).

In the default setting, a photo is recorded automatically when the camcorder detects the smile of a person

during movie recording ([SMILE SHUTTER], p. 87). An orange frame appears around a face targeted for

possible smile detection shot.

You can capture photos from recorded movies (p. 60).

You can switch the shooting mode by touching (HOME) 

(CAMERA)  [MOVIE].

The LCD screen of your camcorder can display recording images across the entire screen (full pixel

display). However, this may cause slight trimming of the top, bottom, right and left edges of images when

played back on a TV which is not compatible with full pixel display. In this case, set [GUIDEFRAME] to

[ON] (p. 78), and record images using the outer frame displayed on the screen as a guide.

Data code during recording

The recording date, time and condition, and coordinates (HDR-XR500VE/XR520VE) are

recorded automatically on the recording media. They are not displayed during recording.

However, you can check them as [DATA CODE] during playback (p. 88).
