Changing the Recording Mode (SP/LP)
You can choose from SP (standard play) and LP (long play). LP extends the tape usage
by 1.5 times.
❍ Tapes recorded in LP mode cannot be used for audio dubbing ( 95) or AV
insert ( 93).
❍ Depending on the nature and usage condition of the tape, picture and sound
recorded in LP mode may be distorted. We recommend using the SP mode for
important recordings.
❍ We recommend recording in SP mode if you plan to transfer the images to a
computer.
❍ If you record in both SP and LP modes on the same tape, the playback picture
may become distorted and the time code may not be written correctly.
❍ If you play back a tape that has been recorded in LP mode with another digital
device on this camcorder, or vice versa, picture and sound may become
distorted.
* MV650i/MV630i/MV600i only.
To change to LP mode, open the menu and select [VCR SET UP]. Select
[REC MODE], set it to [LP] and close the menu.
