NOTES
About the power saving mode: If q > [Power Saving Mode] > [Auto Power Off] is set to
[i On], the camcorder will shut off automatically to save power when it is powered by a battery
pack and is left without any operation for 5 minutes. Press P to turn on the camcorder.
When recording in bright places, it may be difficult to use the LCD screen. In such cases, you can
turn on the LCD backlight (A 24) or adjust the brightness of the LCD screen with the q >
[LCD Brightness] setting. Alternatively, you can also use the viewfinder (A 22).
Under certain conditions, the Smart AUTO icon that appears on the screen may not match the
actual scene. Especially when shooting against orange or blue backgrounds, the sunset or one of
the blue skies icons may appear and the colors may not look natural. In such case, we recommend
recording in mode (A 42).
Photos are recorded as JPG files. The photo size (1920x1080) and quality cannot be changed. At
this size, a 1 GB memory card can hold approximately 670 photos. However, the actual number of
photos that can be recorded will vary depending on the subject and shooting conditions.
Photos cannot be recorded while the digital zoom is activated, during double slot recording or while
fading in or fading out a scene.
When you need to record for a long time with the camcorder set on a tripod (a school recital, for
example), you can close the LCD panel and use only the viewfinder in order to save power when
using a battery pack (A 22).
Recording in n (Manual) Mode
When the mode switch is set to n (Manual mode), you can enjoy full access to the menus and
manually adjust the exposure, focus, white balance and many more of the camcorder’s settings to
your preference. Even in mode, though, the camcorder can help you with the settings. For
example, by using Special Scene recording programs (A 64).
1 Set the mode switch to n.
2 Turn on the camcorder.
3 Record movies and photos.
The procedure is the same as in mode (A 39).
