TITLE RECORDING_
You can easily create a personalized title and record it on your videos with the camera/recorder's built-

Once a title is stored, it can be displayed and recorded at anytime. A title page can contain two lines of
16 characters each.
The titler contains 47 different characters for creating a title.
When creating and recording a title, use the TITLE ON/OFF button on the remote control.
The
DATE/TITLE button on the camera/recorder can also be used to create a title in the camera mode.
NOTE: Be sure to insert the clock battery before creating a title. Although a title can be created without
the clock battery inserted, it will disappear when the battery providing power to the camera/recorder is
removed.
