• When dubbing to a DVD recorder from your
camcorder through an i.LINK cable, you may
not operate your camcorder on your DVD
recorder even if its instruction manual says you
can. If you can set the input mode to HDV or
DV on your DVD recorder and can input/output
pictures, follow the steps in “Dubbing to another
device.”
z Tips
• To record the date/time and camera settings data
when connected by the A/V connecting cable,
display them on the screen.
• When you use an i.LINK cable, the video and
sound signals are transmitted digitally,
producing high quality pictures.
• When an i.LINK cable is connected, the format
of the output signal ( or
) will be indicated on the LCD screen of
your camcorder.
Recording pictures
from a VCR
You can record pictures from a VCR on a
tape. You can record a scene as a still image
on a “Memory Stick Duo.” You can record
pictures in the HDV format by connecting
an HDV1080i specification compatible
device. Be sure to insert a cassette or a
“Memory Stick Duo” for recording in your
camcorder beforehand.
You can connect your camcorder to a VCR
device using an i.LINK cable.
Connect your camcorder to the wall socket
using the supplied AC Adaptor for this
operation (p. 15). Refer also to the
instruction manuals supplied with the
devices to be connected.
b Notes
• You need an i.LINK cable for this operation.
• You cannot perform this operation with the A/V
connecting cable.
• Your camcorder has a 4-pin i.LINK terminal.
Select a cable that fits the terminal on the device
to be attached.
• Your camcorder can only record from a PAL
source. For example, French video or TV
programs (SECAM) cannot be recorded
correctly. See page 101 for details on TV color
systems.
• If you use a 21-pin adaptor to input PAL source,
you need a dual direction 21-pin adaptor
(optional).
