Auto Ground-Directional Standby 
(AGS)
This function prevents unnecessary recording 
when you forget to pause recording and walk with 
the Camcorder tilted upside down while recording 
continues. 
≥If the Camcorder continues to be tilted upside 
down from the normal horizontal position while 
recording on a tape, it is automatically put into 
recording pause.

Camcorder to pause the recording if you are 
recording a subject right above or right below 
you. In these cases, set [AGS] >> [OFF] then 
continue the recording.
≥Use the recording start/stop button to pause or 
stop the recording. The AGS function is only a 
backup function for when you forget to pause 
the recording.

recording pause after being titled upside down 
varies depending on the operating conditions.
Using the built-in flash
Use the built-in flash in order to record still 
pictures in dark places.
Set to Tape/Card Recording Mode.
1
Set [ADVANCED] >> [FLASH] >> [
ß] or [ßA].
≥If [
ßA] is selected, then the flash will 
automatically flash as necessary.

Press the [PHOTO SHOT] button.
≥The flash is activated and the picture will be 
recorded.
≥You cannot use the built-in flash unless the card 
is inserted in the Camcorder.
≥The Camcorder, even when its flash has been 
turned off, automatically determines if the flash 
is necessary by detecting the ambient 
brightness. (If it determines that the flash is 
necessary, the [
] indication lights up in 
yellow.) 
≥When the [
ß] ([ßi]/[ßj]) indication or the [ßA] 
([
ßAi]/[ßAj]) indication is displayed, the flash 
can be lit. If the indication is flashing or not 
displayed, the flash cannot be lit. You can take a 
picture even if the indication is flashing.
≥The available range of the flash is approx. 
1 meter to 2.5 meters  (3 feet to 7.5 feet) in a 
dark place. Pictures will appear dark or reddish 
when they are recorded by using the flash at 
distances greater than 2.5 meters (7.5 feet ). 
≥When set [FLASH] >> [
ßA] and the shutter 
speed, iris or gain is adjusted, the indication 
(either [
ßA], [ßAi], or [ßAj]) may disappear 
and the flash may not be lit.
≥Using the flash fixes the shutter speed of 1/750 
s or faster to 1/500.
≥The picture may become out of focus in a dark 
place. If so, adjust the focus manually.
