Notes on “10sec. TRACK”
•The every track made with the “10sec. TRACK” function has the same recorded time
as the first track of the recording.
•If you record for long time in one recording with 10sec. TRACK set to ON, it may take
a maximum of 16 minutes to write in the disc after recording.
Note on REC LAMP
When REC LAMP is set to ON, the red camera-recording lamp on the front of the
camcorder may reflect on the subject if it is close. In this case, we recommend you set
REC LAMP to OFF.
