Built-in speaker
The camcorder has a built-in speaker so you can review the sound track alongside
the picture during tape playback. The built-in speaker is monaural.
Adjust the speaker volume by turning the selector dial.
• Turn the selector dial up to increase the volume, and down to lower the volume.
• A bar appears in the display to indicate the current volume. It disappears in 4
seconds.
• You can turn off the volume completely by turning the selector dial down until
OFF appears.
Notes:
• Sometimes audio may sound distorted when the volume is turned up high. If
this happens, turn down the volume.
• The speaker turns off when the camcorder is set to any mode other than PLAY
(VCR) mode.
Using the headphones
• You can also use the headphones to monitor the sound track. Change the setting
of the AV/headphones terminal through the menu ( 30).
• You can adjust the headphone volume separately from the built-in speaker,
either during PLAY (VCR) mode or CAMERA mode. The volume level is the
same regardless of mode.
• The levels you adjust for the built-in speaker and headphones are memorized
separately. The camcorder remembers your levels even if you turn the
camcorder off and back on again.
• The speaker turns off when you use headphones.
