Note:
The 16:9 setting will be kept even after the DVD video camera/recorder is turned off.
The 16:9 mode cannot be used with photo recording, external input, S-VIDEO external input (for DZ-GX20MA or
DZ-MV780MA only), or “STD” recording using DVD-RW (VF-mode)/DVD-R disc.
Once the DVD-RW (VF-mode)/DVD-R disc has been recorded in the wide-screen mode, you will not be able to
switch to recording of external input or S-VIDEO external input (DZ-GX20MA or DZ-MV780MA only) using the
same disc.
When using DVD-RW (VF-mode)/DVD-R, switching between wide mode (16:9) and normal mode (4:3) will not be
possible while using the same disc.
Images recorded with “16:9 On” (aspect ratio 16:9) specified will be played back with the setting used during
recording regardless of the 16:9 setting then being used.
The characters of dates and titles will be longer in the vertical direction on a wide-screen TV and on the LCD
monitor of this DVD video camera/recorder.
When “16:9 On” is specified, black bands will appear across the top and bottom of LCD monitor screen (except on
menu or Disc Navigation screen, or playback image recorded with “16:9 Off” is specified).
The 16:9 setting is not compatible with ID-1/ID-2*.
To view images recorded at 16:9 setting, switch the aspect ratio of your TV: See TV instruction manual for this
switching.
When using a video selector (see “Terminology”, p. 166), the TV may not automatically be switched to 16:9 mode.
* This system records the aspect ratio (16:9, 4:3) information in void space between video signals.
