Recording in 16:9 Mode
The camcorder uses the full width of the CCD, retaining image quality and providing a larger horizontal angle of view.
Set the ASPECT RATIO switch to 16:9.
The viewfinder screen changes to the "letterbox" format.
- If you play back a 16:9 recording on a normal TV, the image appears horizontally squeezed.
- If you connect the camcorder to a TV with an S (S1) terminal or Video ID-1 system, recordings made in the 16:9 mode will be automatically played back in widescreen mode.
- The aspect ratio does not change when you operate the ASPECT RATIO switch during recording. It changes once you pause recording.
