record pause switch: Anyone having trouble starting and stopping recordings?

At first I did have that issue - it takes a bit of getting used to. I find that if I press the red button with my left index finger, I manage to hit it at the correct angle. Right hand doesn't work so well. I'm right handed btw

No it doesn't have a pause, just the square red record button that you push to start and stop. It is very basic, but it does zoom and take both video and stills and the reason we bought it was for underwater filming while SNUBA diving and snorkeling.

The previous answers are correct. Recording over or simply being silent in the record mode will edit out what you no longer want on the tape. Hope this helps.

Am I understanding that you want to glue the Record button down, to effectually just thePower button to start recording.Short answer maybe not. I have these units and It seems that recording either starts or stopsOnce you release the button.

Yes, one button allow you to start/stop the recording. About the ten minutes I think It can, depends on the battery.

Just keep clicking the button...you have to go thru all the settings to get back to off pause each time

Not to my knowledge. I've not tried to do this but the playback and record menus are not operable at the same time.

I had not used this feature, but just tried it and it appears that it can be stopped and started again where I left off. Simple to do just using the start/stop button. Thanks

The ability to "pause" is a software function. Audacity works well and you should have the normal functions of STOP, PAUSE, RECORD. You may want to read the other User Remarks before making a buying decision. The system works well for my purposes.

Unfortunately I'm having the same issue. It continually records but it breaks as a 2 minutes video clips. I just got this cam not too long ago so I will have to figure out how to fix this problem and I'll let you know.

Hello kbrass. As a part of normal operation, you cannot pause while taking a video. "Pause" button will only work for playing videos on the camcorder. You may use the "start/stop" button instead to pause the video in which it will create different files for each recordings. Then you can just combine those split video files you have taken using a software like PlayMemories Home software. Ely

Gary,FYI.. I just tried the VOICE record... it DOES NOT WORK as you had wanted. Once you pause and shut down, the e250 starts at the display of the voice recorded list. Sorry ... just dosen't work like the music application did. Perhaps SanDisk will update the software.Jerry

Yes, you can just click on rec button to pause or close the lcd screen to also pause the record.

Yes, there is a button on the lower right corner of the camera. It announces when the audio record is off once you push it

So this recorder does not have a PAUSE while record function? That means that you have to record commercials while recording. I had a SONY GX-300 that had that feature.

sorry, can't help you, it was a gift for someone, I didn't open the box. I think there was something on the box about overriding recording though
