In th 0 Following Recording Situations, the Motion
Sensor May Not Work Correctly:
•A white wall or another slngle^olour background behind the
subject.
•A subject with horizontai, vertical or oblique stripes.
•Sudden changes In the surrounding brightness.
• Exposure of the Movie Camera to .slight shocks or vibration.
•Extremely slow or fast movement of the subject.
•Very little movement of the subject.
•Recording in a dimly lit place. (The (MOTION SENSOR!
indication flashes.)
•A very small subject.
•Movement of the subject near the edge of the picture.
•A background with horizontal or vertical stripes.
•To prevent accidental recording start caused by Movie
Camera movement, the Movie Camera should be mounted
on a tripod or be otherwise secured In a very stable position
•[EFFECT 1] on the [DIGITAL EFFECT) Sub-Menu Is
automatically set to [OFF] when (M.SENSOR1 on the
[CAMERA SETUP] Sub-Menu is set to [ON].
•When [M.SENSOR] on the [CAMERA SETUP] Sub-Menu is
set to [ON], it is not possible to manually start recording by
pressing the Recording StarVStop Button or to activate the
Recording Check or Camera Search Function.
•When you use the AC Adaptor to power the Movie Camera,
the Motion Sensor Function Stand-by Mode will continue
when no movement is detected in the picture, even when
the tape has reached the end during recording. Therefore
we recommend that you check the tape within a week.
When you use the Battery to power the Movie Camera, It
remains in the Motion Sensor Function Stand-by Mode'until
the Battery is discharged, at which time the [CAMERA]
Lamp flashes for a few seconds.
•To ensure correct functioning of the Motion Sensor
Function, the moving subject should be quite large in the
picture. Therefore, when you have zoomed the lens to the
maximum vride-angle position, the distance between lens
and subject should preferably be within about 2 metres. For
objects at larger distances, be sure to zoom in accordingly
•The Movie Camera requires time to set up before recording
starts. Therefore, the beginning of movement is not
recorded.
•If there is a power interruption, the Motion Sensor Function
IS cancelled.
