Notes
•Do not press the cassette compartment down. Doing so may cause a malfunction.
•Your camcorder records pictures in the Digital8 system.
• The recording time when you use your camcorder is half of indicated time on Hi8
tape. If you select the LP mode in the menu settings, 3/4 of indicated time on Hi8
tape.
•If you use standard 8 tape, be sure to play back the tape on your camcorder. Mosaic
pattern noise may appear when you play back standard 8 tape on other camcorders
(including other DCR-TRV240/TRV340/TRV740/TRV840).
•The cassette compartment may not be closed when you press any part of the lid other
than the mark.
To prevent accidental erasure
