Searching the Tape (Photo Search/Date Search)
This allows you to move quickly through still pictures recorded anywhere on a
tape (photo search) or between different days or areas of recording (date
search) on a tape.
1. Press the SEARCH SELECT button to choose between
photo/date search.
• PHOTO SEARCH or DATE SEARCH appears in the display for 4 seconds.
2. Press the - and + buttons to move backwards or
forwards through the still images or between different days
of recording.
• Press once to move to the start of the previous/next still image or day
on the tape.
• You can press more than once to move to the corresponding still image
or day (up to a maximum of 10 times), e.g. press the + button 5
times to move forward 5 still images or days.
• PHOTO SEARCH/DATE SEARCH appears in the middle of the display
alongside the - or + mark and number to search through. You can
change direction easily by pressing the button for the opposite
direction.
Notes:
• Press 3 (stop) to stop searching.
• If you begin a search very close to the start of a recorded still image during
photo search, the camcorder may skip straight past it.
• When you have set the time zone, date search also looks for the change in
date based on the adjusted time.
• A date/time zone cannot be identified if the total recording time on that
day/time zone was less than 1 minute.
• Date search playback may start just before or after the beginning of the
located section.
• If the data code is not displayed correctly you will not be able to operate
the date search correctly.
