Recording Mode Setting
Set depending on your preference.
1
Set the Power Switch to “AUTO” or “PRO.”. Press SP/
EP for more than 1 second. “SP” (Standard Play)
provides higher picture and sound quality and is better
for dubbing, while “EP” (Extended Play) is more
economical, providing three times the recording time.
NOTE:
If the recording mode is switched during recording, the
playback picture will be blurred at the switching point.
