Question posted by aberesin on September 14th, 2012

Flashing Icon On Screen

What does the red flashing icon on lower left mean? It looks like an open door with a line through it.  or an equal sign with a line through it. Does this mean the tape area is not closed properly?  The camera seem to work fine, and records fine.  But it keeps flashing.  Thoughts? Thanks.
