    Does anyone know how you can prevent the camera for not going into standby mode when you dont film for five minutes. This really bugs when you use it as a webcam. Any tips/tricks?

    I am not sure if this works with your specific model, but here's a method to try:
    Turn the camcorder on with no tape in it. Go to menu-item 6 (Setup, the toolbox-icon) and turn "Demo-mode" off.
    If you use the cam as webcam, don't put tape in it.
