Note:
• If you operate the DVD video camera/recorder
connected to another device, always power the camera/
recorder from AC outlet using the AC adapter/charger.
• If you use a Hitachi VCR, it will be operated by the remote
control provided with the DVD video camera/recorder.
When recording an image from a Hitachi VCR, change
the remote control code of the VCR to other than
“VCR2”.
• With DZ-MV580A, using S-VIDEO will enable you to
record clearer images.
• The DZ-MV550A cannot record S-VIDEO input.
• Reduce the volume of external input sound heard from
the built-in speaker: The loud volume may cause noise
to enter the recorded image.
• The recorded contents can be played back in the same
manner as when playing back camera images recorded
on this DVD video camera/recorder.
• Still images can also be recorded on DVD-RAM disc or
card. See “Switching External Input Recording Method
(PHOTO Input)” on page 98 for details, and “Recording
Stills” on page 50 for how to record still images.
• The “Input Source” setting will return to “CAMERA”
whenever DVD video camera/recorder is turned off.
• Recording of most images is prohibited by the copy-
guard signal to protect the copyright, except for images
recorded on camcorders for personal enjoyment.
“COPY PROTECTED” appears in these images: They
cannot be recorded on this DVD video camera/recorder.
Typical copyright protected images include those of
DVD video, LD, recorded video tapes, some parts of
digital satellite broadcasts, etc.
• If a video signal that cannot be read by this DVD video
camera/recorder is present - even in images recorded
on camcorder for personal enjoyment without copy-
guard signal - the input image may not be recorded
normally.
• If the input signal is interrupted by switching the channel
on TV or switching the signal using video selector (see
“Terminology”, P. 160), normal recording cannot be
performed.
