Note on TV color systems
TV color systems differ from country to country.
To view your recordings on a TV, you need an NTSC system-based TV.
Precaution on copyright
Television programs, films, video tapes, and other materials may be copyrighted.
Unauthorized recording of such materials may be contrary to the provision of the copyright laws.
Precautions on camcorder care
•The LCD screen and/or the color viewfinder are manufactured using highprecision technology. However, there may be some tiny black points and/or bright points (red, blue or green in color) that constantly appear on the LCD screen and/or in the viewfinder. These points are normal in the manufacturing process and do not affect the recorded picture in any way.
Over 99.99% are operational for effective use.
•Do not let the camcorder get wet. Keep the camcorder away from rain and sea water. Letting the camcorder get wet may cause the unit to malfunction, and sometimes this malfunction cannot be repaired. [a]
•Never leave the camcorder under temperatures above 140° F (60 °C), such as in a car parked in the sun or under direct sunlight. [b]

Note on standby mode
If you leave the camcorder for 5 minutes or more with a cassette inserted in Standby mode, the camcorder goes off automatically. This prevents wearing down the battery and wearing out the tape. To resume Standby mode, turn STANDBY down once and turn it up again. To start recording, press START/STOP.
Notes on the recording mode
•This camcorder records and plays back in SP (standard play) mode and in LP (long play) mode.
The playback quality in LP mode, however, will not be as good as that in SP mode.
•When a tape recorded on this camcorder in LP mode is played back on other types of 8 mm camcorders or VCRs, the playback quality may not be as good as that on this camcorder.
To focus the viewfinder lens
If the viewfinder is not in focus at all or when you use the camcorder after someone else has used it, focus the viewfinder lens. Turn the viewfinder lens adjustment ring so that the indicators in the viewfinder come into sharp focus.
Recording with the START/STOP button depressed
You can also make recording while pressing down the START/STOP button. To make the START/STOP button work this way, slide START/STOP MODE to

Note on recording
When you record from the beginning of the tape, run the tape for about 15 seconds before actual recording. This prevents the camcorder from missing any start-up scenes when you play back the tape.

Notes on the tape counter
•The tape counter indicates the recording or playback time. Use it as a guide. There will be a time lag of several seconds from the actual time. To set the counter to zero, press COUNTER RESET.
•If the tape is recorded in SP and LP modes mixed, the tape counter shows incorrect recording time. When you intend to edit the tape using the tape counter as a guide, record in same (SP or LP) mode.
Note on beep sound
As indicated with ³ in the illustrations, a beep sounds when you turn the power on or when you start recording and two beeps sound when you stop recording, confirming the operation. Several beeps also sound as a warning of any unusual condition of the camcorder. Note that the beep sound is not recorded on the tape. If you do not want to hear the beep sound, change the BEEP setting to OFF.
Note on the AUTO DATE feature
The clock is set to East Coast Standard Time at the factory. You can reset the clock.
The AUTO DATE feature shows the date automatically once a day. However, the date may automatically appear more than once a day when:
–you reset the date and time.
–you eject and insert the tape again.
–you stop recording within 10 seconds.
Using the zoom feature
Zooming is a recording technique that lets you change the size of the subject in the scene. For more professional-looking recordings, use the zoom sparingly.

Camera recording
Zooming speed (Variable speed zooming)
Turn the power zoom lever fully for a high-speed zoom. Turn it lightly for a relatively slow zoom.
When you shoot a subject using a telephoto zoom
If you cannot get a sharp focus while in extreme telephoto zoom, move the power zoom lever to the “W” side until the focus is sharp.
You can shoot a subject that is at least 2.6 feet (about 80 cm) away from the lens surface in the telephoto position, or 1/2 inches (about 1 cm) in the wide-angle position.
Notes on digital zoom
•More than 13x zoom is performed digitally, and the picture quality deteriorates as you go toward the “ T ” side. If you do not want to use the digital zoom, set the D ZOOM function to OFF.
•The vertical bar in the power zoom indicator separates the digital zooming zone (right side of the bar [a]) and the optical zooming zone (left side of the bar [b]). If you set the D ZOOM function to OFF, the right side of the bar [a] disappears.
Shooting with the LCD screen
You can also record the picture while looking at the LCD screen.
When using the LCD screen, the viewfinder turns off automatically. You cannot monitor the sound from the speaker during recording.
(1)While pressing PUSH OPEN, open the LCD panel.
(2)Adjust the angle of the LCD panel.
The LCD panel moves about 90 degrees to this side and about 210 degrees to the other side.
To adjust the brightness of the LCD screen, turn the BRIGHT dial.
The battery life is longer when the LCD panel is closed. Use the viewfinder instead of the LCD screen to save the battery power.

Hints for better shooting
For hand-held shots, you’ll get better results by holding the camcorder according to the following suggestions:
•Hold the camcorder firmly and secure it with the grip strap so that you can easily manipulate the controls with your thumb.

3
• Place your right elbow against your side.
• Place your left hand under the camcorder to support it.
• Place your eye firmly against the viewfinder eyecup.
• Use the viewfinder frame as a guide to determine the horizontal plane.

CCD-TRV12/TRV22/TRV33/TRV112/TRV212 3-859-057-15.E
Hints for better shooting
•You can record in a low position to get an interesting recording angle. Lift the viewfinder up for recording from a low position [a].
•While recording in a low position, you can use the START/STOP button on the top of the camcorder or the power zoom button located on the front [b]. Note that you cannot change zooming speed using the front power zoom button.
•You can also record in a low position or even in a high position using the LCD panel

Place the camcorder on a flat surface or use a tripod
Try placing the camcorder on a table top or any other flat surface of suitable height. If you have a tripod for a still camera, you can also use it with the camcorder. When attaching a non-Sony tripod, make sure that the length of the tripod screw is less than 9/32 inches (6.5 mm). Otherwise, the screw may damage the inner parts of the camcorder.
Cautions on the viewfinder and the LCD
•Do not pick up the camcorder by the viewfinder or by the LCD panel [d].
•Do not place the camcorder so as to point the viewfinder or the LCD screen toward the sun. The inside of the viewfinder or the LCD panel may be damaged. Be careful when placing the camcorder under sunlight or by a window [e].

[e] |
Note on the LCD screen
When you use the LCD screen outdoors in direct sunlight, the LCD screen may be difficult to see. If this happens, we recommend that you use the viewfinder.
