The Self Recording function lets you monitor the re-
cording while you are part of the scene. Set the
“SELF REC” menu item to “AUTO CORRECT” to turn
the on-screen picture right way up. Then rotate the
monitor
180”
to face the same direction as the cam-
era lens.
When the monitor is turned back to the normal posi-
tion, the image returns to normal. The screen image
is automatically inverted when the monitor rotation is
between
140”
and
200”.
Note:
l You will need the VR-31 FA tripod adaptor for
180”
record-
ing (optional accessory) and a tripod when recording in
Self Recording mode.
Make sure that the “SELF REC” item has been set to
“AUTO CORRECT” on
MENU 2.

Notes:
l In Self Recording mode, it is not possible to record using
manual recording modes, change picture adjustments,
display menus, record the date and time, or use the
quick-return feature. Also, the recording mode indicator
is displayed as a mirror image, as shown in the
illustration.
l When you wish to keep the image normal instead of in-
verted even after rotating the monitor, select “NO COR-
RECT” instead of “AUTO CORRECT” for “SELF REC” on
the MENU 2 display.

l In Self Recording mode, all standard warning indicators
on the monitor are replaced by a flashing “@” indicator in
the centre of the monitor. To check the meaning of the
warning, turn the monitor back to the normal position.
Cautions:
l Do not rotate the monitor to the Self Recording position
while the
VIEWCAM
is recording or playing back.
l For recording in Self Recording mode, be sure to rotate
the monitor, NOT the lens. If you hold the
VIEWCAM
upside-down with its lens at the bottom, the subject will
be recorded upside-down.
