Quick Start
When Quick Start is ON the battery power is still
being consumed, even when the LCD Monitor
and the Viewfinder are closed.
The Camcorder will resume recording/pause
mode about 1.7 seconds after the LCD Monitor
and the Viewfinder are reopened.
Please note in Quick Start Mode approximately
half the pause recording power is being
consumed.
Using Quick Start Mode will reduce the battery
recording/playback time.
This is only activated in the following cases.
A tape or a card is inserted, while the Tape
Recording Mode is set.
A card is inserted, while the Card Recording
Mode is set.
Set to Tape/Card Recording Mode.
1 Set [SETUP] >> [QUICK START] >> [ON].
(-25-)
2 While the [OFF/ON] switch is still set to
[ON], close the LCD monitor and retract the
Viewfinder.
The Status indicator lights green and the unit
goes into quick start standby mode.
The Camcorder will not go into quick start
standby mode unless the LCD monitor is
closed and the viewfinder is retracted.
3 Open the LCD monitor or extend the
Viewfinder.
The Status indicator lights red and the
Camcorder is put into recording pause
approx. 1.7 seconds after it is turned on.
To cancel Quick Start
1 Set [SETUP] >> [QUICK START] >> [OFF].
(-25-)
If the [OFF/ON] switch is set to [OFF] while the
unit is in quick start standby mode, the power
turns off.
If the standby continues for approx. 30 minutes,
then the Status indicator will go off and the
Camcorder will be completely turned off.
If the Mode dial is moved or the battery is
removed in quick start standby mode, quick
start is canceled and the power turns off.
When the Camcorder is quick-started with the
white balance on automatic, it may take some
time until the white balance is adjusted if the
scene being recorded has a light source
different from the scene last recorded. (When
the MagicPix function is used, however, the
white balance of the scene last recorded is
retained.)
If the power is turned on in quick start standby
mode, the zoom magnification becomes 1t and
the picture size may differ from what it was
before quick start standby mode.
If [POWER SAVE] (-32-) is set to [5 MINUTES]
and the unit automatically goes into quick start
standby mode, set the [OFF/ON] switch to
[OFF], then to [ON] again. Also, close the LCD
monitor and retract the viewfinder and then
open the LCD monitor or extend the viewfinder
again.
When using the AC adaptor, Quick Start can be
used even if a tape/card is not inserted.
