You can append OK marks to the clips for important scenes.
Clips appended with OK marks cannot be deleted, thus 
protecting the important clips. In addition, you can display 
only the clips with OK marks in the thumbnail display during 
Media mode.

Pre REC
This mode allows you to start video and audio recording 
about 3 seconds before the actual recording.
You can start recording about 3 seconds before the actual 
recording when the camera recorder is in recording standby 
mode (STBYP).
Using Pre REC allows you to record a complete event 
without missing the initial scenes even if you start the 
recording late.
