NOTES

We recommend powering the camcorder using the compact power adapter.

When recording to a VCR using an analog connection –connection type or ( 47)–, the quality of the edited tape will be lower than the original.

When recording to a digital video recorder using the DV terminal –connection type ( 47)–:

-If the picture does not appear, disconnect the DV cable and restore the connection after a short while or turn the camcorder off and then on again.

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