Canon MV 901 instruction manual

Page 64

We recommend powering the camcorder from a household power source.

When connecting a VCR, the quality of the edited tape will be slightly lower than that of the original.

When connecting a digital video device:

-If the picture does not appear, reconnect the DV cable or turn the camcorder off and back on again.

-Proper operation cannot be guaranteed for all digital video devices equipped with a DV terminal. If operation does not work, use the AV terminal.
