Remaining battery time indicator during recording
The remaining battery time indicator roughly indicates the continuous recording time.
The indicator may not be correct, depending on the conditions in which you are
recording. When you close the LCD panel and open it again, it takes about one minute
for the correct remaining battery time in minutes to be displayed.
Time code
The time code indicates the recording or playback time, “0:00:00” (hours : minutes :
seconds) in CAMERA and “0:00:00:00” (hours : minutes : seconds : frames) in VCR.
You cannot rewrite only the time code.

The recording data (date/time or various settings when recorded) are not displayed
during recording. However, they are recorded automatically on the tape. To display the
recording data, press DATA CODE during playback. You can also use the Remote
Commander for this operation (p. 39).
