Playing Back a Cassette

You can use the LCD screen for instant, on-the-spot playback. The camera also

plays back the sound track via the built-in speaker (p. 18).

• When you play back a tape, it is convenient to close the LCD screen with its

screen side facing up.

• When the LCD screen is closed with its screen side facing inwards, you can

monitor the playback using the viewfinder. However, you can only monitor the

sound track using headphones.

To play back your recordings on a TV, see p. 22.

To use the wireless controller, see p. 29.

Note:

• To avoid accidental recording, make sure that you slide the tab on the cassette

so that it exposes the hole (the switch position is usually labeled SAVE or

ERASE OFF).

1. Attach a power source and slide the POWER switch to VCR.

• The power indicator lights up green.

2. Load the cassette.

3. Press the PLAY

e button to start playback.

• To end playback, press the STOP 3 button.

• To wind the tape forwards, stop playback and press the FF 1 button.

• To wind the tape backwards, stop playback and press the REW ` button.

• If the playback picture is rough (mosaic-like noise), clean the video heads

using a Canon DVM-CL Digital Video Head Cleaning Cassette or a

commercially available digital video head cleaning cassette.
