Notes:
*
Macro shooting
is possible as close as approx.
5 cm (2") to the subject when the zoom lever is
set all the way to "W".
When you zoom into a subject close to the
lens, the camera may automatically
zoom out
depending on the distance to the subject. In
this case, set "TELE MACRO" to "ON" (_- 20).

* Frames are not displayed during recording.
If recording
starts from a blank portion,
the
time code begins
counting
from "00:00:00"
(minute:second:frame).
If recording
starts
from
the end of a previously
recorded
scene,
the
time code continues
from the last time code
number.
If during
recording
a blank portion
is
left partway
through
the tape, the time code
is interrupted.
When
recording
is resumed,
the time code starts
counting
up again from
"00:00:00".
This means the camcorder
may
record the same time codes as those
existing
in a previously
recorded
scene.
To prevent
this, perform
Recording

Of A
Tape (:-. 15) in the following
cases;
When shooting

When a tape
is removed
and re-inserted
during
shooting.
When shooting
using a partially
recorded
tape.
When shooting
on a blank portion
located
partway
through
the tape.
When shooting

NOteS:
The time code cannot be reset.
During fast-forwarding
and rewinding, the time
code indication does not move smoothly.
The time code is displayed only when "TIME
