• In standby mode, the camcorder will shut off after the time selected for the
[Quick Start] setting.
[Quick Start]: Select whether to activate the Quick Start function when you close the LCD
panel in a recording mode (
35
) and the length of time after which the camcorder will
end the standby mode and shut off automatically.
[Control for HDMI]: Activates the HDMI-CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) function.
When you connect the camcorder to an HDTV compatible with HDMI-CEC using an HDMI
cable, you can control the camcorder’s playback using the TV’s remote control. Also,
turning on the camcorder will automatically turn on the TV and select the camcorder’s
video input and turning off the TV will automatically turn off the camcorder.
• Use the up/down/left/right buttons and the OK or SET button on the TV’s remote control
to play back your recordings.
• Depending on the TV set, additional settings may be required on the TV itself to activate
the HDMI-CEC function. Refer to the TV’s instruction manual.
• Correct operation of the HDMI-CEC function cannot be guaranteed even when
connecting the camcorder to compatible TV sets. If you cannot use the TV’s remote
control, operate the camcorder directly or use the camcorder’s wireless controller.
• The remote control of the TV can only be used to play back movies or photos (
or
mode only). If the camcorder is connected to the TV while it is set to
mode,
depending on the TV used, turning off the TV will automatically turn off the camcorder
even if it is recording at the time.
[Photo Numbering]: Select the photo numbering method to be used on a new memory
card. Photos are automatically assigned consecutive numbers from 0101 to 9900, and
stored in folders containing up to 100 photos. Folders are numbered from 101 to 998.
[
Reset]: Photo numbers will restart from 101-0101 every time you insert a new memory
card.
[
Continuous]: Photo numbers will continue from the number following that of the last
photo recorded with the camcorder.
• If the memory card you insert already contains a photo with a larger number, a new
photo will be assigned a number one higher than that of the last photo on the memory
card.
• We recommend using the [
Continuous] setting.
[Drop Sensor]: Detects when the camcorder is dropped and activates a protection
mechanism to help prevent hard disk damage. While the mechanism is active,
appears
in red on the screen and playback/recording may stop.
• Keep the drop sensor set to [
On] in most situations. Deactivating this function can
increase the likelihood of hard disk damage should the camcorder be dropped.
• When the drop sensor is set to [
On], recording/playback may stop when the
camcorder approaches a weightless state, which the sensor can detect as a fall or drop.
To record under such situations, set the drop sensor to [
Off
].
[Firmware]: You can verify the current version of the camcorder's firmware. This menu
option is usually unavailable.
