Other functions
Rec review
When recording is temporarily stopped and the RET button on the lens is pressed, the last two seconds of the recording on the tape is
automatically rewound, and the playback images for those seconds appear in the viewfinder. These functions makes it possible to check
whether the recording has been performed as intended.
After the images have been played back, the recording start standby status is restored.
If the RET button is held down, up to 10 seconds on the tape can be rewound and played back.
<Notes>
≥ The rec review function cannot be used unless the recording is at least one second long.
≥ During the rec review operation, the rec review images are output to not only the viewfinder but the video output connectors (VIDEO OUT
connector, S-VIDEO connector) as well. Bear in mind that the rec review images will be recorded on a backup VTR if a back VTR has
been connected and backup images are being recorded.
Variable speed (FF/REW) playback
≥ When the FF (fast forward) or REW (rewind) button is pressed
during playback, the tape is played back at 2
a the normal speed

played back at 4
a the normal speed in the forward or reverse
direction.
≥ By pressing the FF or REW button further, the playback mode is
switched between 2
a the normal speed in the forward or reverse
direction and 4 a the normal speed in the forward or reverse
direction.

be played back.
If the PLAY button is pressed again, normal playback is resumed.
This unit is capable of simple interval shooting (intermittent
recording). This function is very useful for shooting programs with
nature themes and art programs.
The INTERVAL REC function settings are selected on the sub-
menu VTR OPTION screen.
≥ INTERVAL REC:
This sets the INTERVAL REC function to ON, OFF or ONE
SHOT.
≥ REC TIME:
This sets the recording time (1 cut) for interval shooting.
≥ INTERVAL TIME:
This sets the rec pause time for interval shooting.
When the items above are set, the INTERVAL REC mode is
established, and “ i ” starts flashing in the viewfinder.
When the VTR START button is pressed, interval shooting starts,
and the flashing “ i ” changes to a lighted “i REC.”
When the first interval shooting is completed and the rec pause
mode is established, “i REC” which had remained lighted now starts
flashing in the viewfinder.
When “i REC” is set, the POWER/WARNING LED flashes in green.

To release the INTERVAL REC mode, press the VTR START
