Panasonic AG-DVC60 Guia Do Utilizador

• Is the manual focus mode established? 

You can focus automatically only when the auto focus mode is 
established.

• Are you shooting a scene where it’s hard to bring the subject into 

focus in the auto focus mode? 
Some subjects are hard to bring into focus in the auto focus mode. 
If this is the case, bring the subject into focus in the manual focus 
mode. 
It may be hard to bring the subject into focus when: 
1. both close and distant objects are to be shot
2. shooting through dirty windows or other glass
3. shooting in dark places
4. there are sparkling or shiny objects around the subject
5. subjects are moving fast
6. shooting scenes with minimal contrast
7. shooting at a low shutter speed

• Is the tab on the cassette tape used to prevent accidental erasure 

at the open (SAVE) position? 
You cannot edit if this tab is open.

• Are you trying to edit a part that was shot in the LP mode? 

You cannot perform audio dubbing on tapes recorded in the LP 
mode because the tracks on the tape in this mode are narrower 
than the head width.

• If a tape is played in the reverse slow mode, the time code display 

may not register a regular count, but this is not a sign of malfunc-
tioning.

• The remaining tape is not displayed accurately if you shoot continu-

ously for periods of less than 30 seconds.

• The display may show 2 to 3 minutes less remaining tape than the 

time actually remaining on the tape.

• Is the VCR lamp lighted? 

No kind of playback operation can be performed unless this lamp is 
lighted. 

• This noise is inherent to digital video technology. It is not a sign of 

malfunctioning.

• Is the TV input selector set to “video input?” 

Read the TV set’s instruction manual carefully, and select the video 
input connector you should use to connect your camera-recorder.

• Are the camera-recorder’s heads dirty? 

The playback images will not be displayed clearly if these heads 
are dirty.
