Recording Movies and Photos41NOTES• 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 batterypack 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 canturn on the LCD backlight (A 23) or adjust the brightness of the LCD screen with the q >[LCD Brightness] setting. Alternatively, you can also use the viewfinder (A 21).• Under certain conditions, the Smart AUTO icon that appears on the screen may not match theactual scene. Especially when shooting against orange or blue backgrounds, the sunset or one ofthe blue skies icons may appear and the colors may not look natural. In such case, we recommendrecording in mode (A 42).• Photos are recorded as JPG files. The photo size (1920x1080) and quality cannot be changed. Atthis size, a 1 GB memory card can hold approximately 670 photos. However, the actual number ofphotos 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 whilefading 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, forexample), you can close the LCD panel and use only the viewfinder in order to save power whenusing a battery pack (A 21).COPYDownloaded From VideoCamera-Manual.com Manuals
