It is connected to a macbook via firewire into the iMovie program. Some setting on the camcorder &nbsp;must have got changed to cause these weird images to appear. By weird I mean things like other scenes or balloons floating around. Could someone tell me what may be changed to eliminate this?</P> Mon, 08 Jul 2013 22:45:20 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Camcorders/Optura-20-camcorder/m-p/32969#M591 uscfof 2013-07-08T22:45:20Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Camcorders/Optura-20-camcorder/m-p/33233#M592 <P>Hi Uscfof,</P><P><BR />From your description, it sounds like you may have enabled the "Demo" mode.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>The setting for this is in the MENU under "Display Set Up".&nbsp; Go to "Demo Mode", change this setting to "Off", then exit the menu.&nbsp;</P> Wed, 10 Jul 2013 21:40:21 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Camcorders/Optura-20-camcorder/m-p/33233#M592 Richard 2013-07-10T21:40:21Z
