Functions and Characteristics of HDD/DVD/Cards
Notes
• Hitachi Maxell single sided discs (HG type) have been confirmed to be
compatible with this camcorder and are recommended. Take care not to
dirty (including fingerprints) or scratch the surface of the discs when
handling.
When using a double-sided disc, take great care with handling it. Using
non-Hitachi Maxell discs may not allow the camcorder to deliver optimum
performance.
• DVD housed in a square cartridge/caddy case or a round DVD holder
cannot be used as is. The DVD must be removed from its case/holder
before it can be used.
Note on DVD-R
This camcorder writes control data to a disc in order to automatically make
recording adjustments when first recording after:
• a disc is inserted, and
• the power is turned on while the disc is in the camcorder.
If there is not enough space on the control area of a disc, recording may not
be possible even if the data space for recording movies is not full. To prevent
this, avoid performing operations described above more than 99 times per
disc.
Unusable Discs
Dual layer DVD discs, Blu-ray disc, +R, and HD-DVD.
