[Memory Info]:
Displays a screen where you can verify how much of the
built-in memory (
c
only) or the memory card is currently in use (
l
total recording time and
k
total number of photos) and how much space
remains available for recording.
• Estimated figures about available movie recording time and available
number of photos are approximate and based on the recording mode
and photo quality/size settings currently in use.
• In the information screen of a memory card you can also check its
Speed Class.

The [Total space] shown for the built-in memory indicates
actually usable space. It may be slightly smaller than the nominal built-in
memory capacity listed in the Specifications.
[x.v.Color]:
Uses a color space with an extended gamut to achieve
deeper colors, closer to real life.
• Use this function to record video only when you intend to play back your
recordings on an HDTV compatible with x.v.Color, connected to the
camcorder using an HDMI cable. If recordings made with x.v.Color are
played back on a non-compatible TV, colors may not be reproduced
correctly.
[Color Bars & Test Tone]:
Use the color bars to calibrate the colors on an
external TV or monitor.
[Color Bars]: Displays a standard SMPTE color bar pattern.
[Color Bars & Tone]: In addition to the color bar pattern, a 1 kHZ, -12 dB
test tone is output.
• Connect the camcorder to the TV or monitor and display the color bars
(if desired, along with the test tone). Check the colors and audio record-
ing levels on the external monitor and adjust as necessary.
