Troubleshooting (Continued)
You cannot record a smooth transition on a tape from the last recorded scene
to the next.
• Do not record progressive pictures in different [REC TYPE] settings on the same tape.
• Perform End search (p. 50).
• Do not remove the cassette (the picture will be recorded continuously without a break even
when you turn the power off).
• Do not record pictures in the HDV and DVCAM (DV) formats on the same tape.
• Do not record pictures in DVCAM mode and DV SP mode on the same tape.
• When [QUICK REC] is set to [ON], you cannot record a smooth transition (p. 89).
The shutter sound is not heard when you record a still image.
• Set [BEEP] to [ON] (p.90).
• No shutter sound will be outputted during movie recording or while an external device is
connected.
End search or last scene review does not work.
• Do not eject the cassette after recording (p.50).
• There is nothing recorded on the cassette.
• There is a blank section between recorded sections of the tape. This is not a malfunction.
Auto focus does not function.
• Set the focus ring to mode B and press the ASSIGN button to which [FOCUS] is assigned
until the automatic focus function is enabled (p.30, 48).
• Adjust the focus manually if the automatic focus does not work properly (p.30).
Menu items are grayed out or do not work.
• You cannot select grayed out display items in the current recording/playback situation.
• There are some functions you cannot activate simultaneously. The following list shows
examples of unworkable combinations of functions and menu items.
