Some video files cannot be edited. Why is
that?
Video files recorded with dual recording •
cannot be edited. To edit video files on
the camcorder, set [Dual recording] to
[Off] before you record video (see ‘Use
your camcorder’ > ‘Adjust settings’).
Tips on video making
You can easily look back on fun moments •
and relive them with the camcorder. To
enjoy these memories to the fullest, here
are some simple video tips:
When capturing videos, hold your •
camcorder steady in your hand
Don’t move too fast when panning •
(i.e. moving the camera horizontally)
as it will be hard to follow what is
captured when you review the video
Try shooting from different angles •
– for example, from the side, from
the front, or even from below. You
can easily join the different video
segments together with the PC
software included
resolution that HD TV programs are
broadcast in. “720” refers to the display
resolution, in terms of the number of
horizontal lines onscreen. “p” stands
for progressive scan, or the sequential
appearance of the lines in each frame. HD
720p gives video quality that is superior
to that found in typical mobile phones
and digital cameras.
How do I play my videos on TV?
To play back on TV, please use an HDMI •
connector (mini HDMI to standard
HDMI) if your TV accepts HDMI input, or
use the video-out cable provided.
Why is there no lens cover?
The camcorder comes without a lens •
cover, keeping it simple to use and
fuss-free. It is made of robust material
that doesn’t scratch under normal
usage. A travel pouch and a lens cloth
are provided, allowing you to keep the
camcorder clean.
What format does the camcorder record in?
The camcorder uses the same video •
format as Blu-ray players and discs –
H.264. This highly sophisticated format
delivers superb HD picture quality.
What does pre-record mean that is in the
setting?
The pre-record button is designed to •
let you never miss a moment. When
you enable the pre-record function, the
camcorder will record video 3 seconds
before you have pressed the record
button. So when you play-back the
recorded film, you will automatically
see the first 3 seconds before you have
pressed the record button. This can
be useful when filming unexpected
moments. The pre-record function will
not drain battery life, it will operate as
normal.
