3-3 Checking the Recording
— Playback
By pressing the PLAY button, you can review any length of the
recording in the viewfinder in black and white. There are two other ways
to review the recording.
• Recording review: You can see the last 2 seconds of the recording in
the viewfinder in black and white.
• Color playback: You can see the recording in color on a color video
monitor without the need for any external adaptor.
You can also view the picture by pressing the REW button or F FWD
button during playback.
See Section 2-3 "Audio Functions" (page 2-5), for information about the switches
and controls used to select the audio output signal and to adjust the audio level.
3-3-1 Checking the Last Two Seconds of the
Recording — Recording Review
If you press the RET button on the lens while recording is paused, the
last two seconds of the tape is automatically rewound, and that segment
is played back on the viewfinder screen. Use this function to check
whether recording went smoothly. If you hold the RET button down
longer, at most 10 seconds of the tape is rewound and played back.
After playback, the camcorder is ready to start recording again.
Set CAM RET. to OFF on the FUNCTION 2/2 page of the setup menu
when inputting a return video signal to the GENLOCK IN connector.
For information about setting the CAM RET. function, see Section 4-9-2 "Selecting
the Functions" (page 4-76).
Note
The recording review function only works if the recording you have
made is at least 2 seconds long.
