©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.
®Although
you
can
select
a
Digital
Effect
on
the
[DIGITAL
EFFECT]
Sub-Menu
when
[M.SENSOR]
on
the
[CAMERA
SETUP]
Sub-Menu
is
set
to
[ON],
the
Motion
Sensor
Function
has
priority
and
the
selected
digital
effect
is
automatically
cancelled.
When
[M.SENSOR]
on
the
[CAMERA
SETUP]
Sub-Menu
is
set
to
[ON],
it
is
not
possible
to
manually
start
recording
by

the
Recording

@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

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

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
wide-angle
position,
the
distance
between
lens
and
subject
should
preferably
be
within
about
2
metres.
For
subjects
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.
elf
there
is
a
power
interruption,
the
Motion
Sensor
Function
is
cancelled.
