Explanation/Solution
• The camcorder is unable to record these levels of brightness.
• Do not leave the camcorder with the LCD screen exposed to
direct sunlight.
• Set the "Beep Sound" to "On."
• The beep sound is temporally off while recording videos.
• When the Audio/Video cable jack is connected to the camcorder,
the beep sound will automatically turn off.
• On your camcorder, there may be a slight time delay between
the point when you press Recording start/stop button and the
actual point where the recorded video starts/stops. This is not an
error.
• The internal temperature of your camcorder is unusually high.
Turn off your camcorder and leave it for a while in a cool place.
• Your camcorder is damp and moist inside (condensation). Turn
off your camcorder and leave it for about 1 hour in a cool place.
• Set your camcorder to Record mode.
• Release the lock on the write-protection tab of the memory card if
any.
• The storage media is full.
Use a new memory card or format the storage media.
Or remove unnecessary images.
Explanation/Solution
• Set "Focus" to "Auto."
• The recording conditions are not suitable for auto focus.
Adjust the focus manually.
• The lens is dusty on the surface. Clear the lens and check the focus.
• Recording is being made in a dark place. Increase the brightness
in the place.
• This occurs when recording images under a fluorescent lamp,
sodium lamp, or mercury lamp. Cancel "iSCENE" to minimize
these phenomena.
