How to safely disconnect the USB cable from my Panasonic HC-MDH2?
To safely disconnect the USB cable from your Panasonic Camcorder and avoid error messages on your PC, double-click the icon in the task tray and follow the on-screen instructions.
Why is the function display not displayed on my Panasonic Camcorder?
If the function display (Remaining Display, Counter Display, etc.) is not showing on your Panasonic Camcorder, check that [MEDIA & BATTERY] or [OTHER DISPLAY] within the [SW & DISP SETUP] menu is not set to [OFF].
Why can't I delete scenes on my Panasonic HC-MDH2?
If you're unable to delete scenes on your Panasonic Camcorder, first ensure that the scenes are not protected by releasing the protect setting. If the thumbnails are displayed in a way that indicates they cannot be deleted, and the scenes are unnecessary, format the media to erase the data.
Why do I see horizontal bars in the image of my Panasonic HC-MDH2?
Changes in color or brightness, horizontal bars, or flickering on the LCD monitor of your Panasonic Camcorder when indoors are usually not malfunctions. These effects can occur when recording under fluorescent, mercury, or sodium light. In Motion Picture Recording Mode, use Intelligent Auto/ Intelligent Auto Plus Mode, or set the shutter speed to 1/100 in 50 Hz areas, or 1/125 in 60 Hz areas. This will not affect recorded images in Still Picture Recording Mode.
