Notes:
• If the warning indicator “NOT INITIALIZED” appears, format
the SmartMedia card by the Digital Recorder (see page 64).
• The Digital Recorder automatically chooses the correct shutter
speed for the lighting conditions. Note that the slow shutter
speed set for the poor lighting may cause small image shakes.
And the image on the LCD monitor will be adversely affected.
• Using the Digital Recorder under fluorescent lights, mercury
lamps or sodium-vapour lamps causes flashs on the recorded
images. Sometimes those lightings affect tint of the images.
The Still Recording mode is factory preset to NORMAL. If
you want to record still images in higher picture quality,
change the mode to FINE (see page 46).
