Instant Timer Recording (ITR)

immediately for a set period of time or until the

enables you to record up to twice the amount of
time on a video cassette. For example an E-180 will
record up to 180 minutes using Standard Play (SP);
using LP you will be able to record up to 360 minutes.
Please note there will be a slight loss in picture and
sound quality when using LP.
