b Notes
You cannot record TV programs from the
HDV/DV interface (i.LINK).
User bits are not recorded when dubbing from a
DVCAM (DV) device via an i.LINK cable.
You can record pictures from DV devices only
in the DVCAM (DV) format.
Note the following when connecting with an
i.LINK cable:
The recorded picture becomes rough when a
picture is paused on your camcorder while
recording to a VCR.
You cannot record the picture and sound
separately.
If you pause or stop the recording and restart
it, the picture may not be recorded smoothly.
If video signals inputted to your camcorder via
the HDV/DV jack experience the phenomenon
of jittering (variation in frequency), that jittering
is transmitted to the video signals outputted
from the COMPONENT OUT jack and A/V
OUT jack. When you monitor a movie on a TV
connected to your camcorder via the
COMPONENT OUT jack or A/V OUT jack,
images may be distorted or not be displayed.
Jittering will not affect recording of the movie
on a tape with your camcorder but may affect
recording of the movie with another VCR
connected to your camcorder via the
COMPONENT OUT jack or A/V OUT jack.
z Tips
When a 4:3 video signal is input, it appears with
black bands on the right and left sides on the
screen of your camcorder.
Be sure to insert a “Memory Stick Duo” for
recording in your camcorder beforehand,
and assign [PHOTO] to any of ASSIGN
buttons (p. 43).
