NOTES
• We recommend powering the
camcorder using the compact power
adapter.
• When recording to a VCR using an
analog connection –connection type
( 39)–, the quality of the edited tape
will be lower than the original.
• When recording to a digital video
recorder using the DV terminal
–connection type ( 39)–:
- If the picture does not appear,
disconnect the DV cable and restore
the connection after a short while or

again.
- Proper operation cannot be
guaranteed for all digital devices
equipped with a DV terminal. If the
operation does not work, use the AV
terminal.
