ªTo cancel the standby for recording

When the camera is standby for recording, move the joystick down and select the [] icon.

Do not plug or unplug the DV cable during dubbing, or the dubbing may not be completed properly.

If a picture (bilingual video, etc.) containing main sound and sub sound has been dubbed, select

the desired sound by [SETUP] >> [AUDIO OUT] on playback.

Even if you use a device equipped with DV terminals such as IEEE1394, you may not be able to perform digital dubbing in some cases. For more information, see the instructions for equipment connected.

Regardless of the menu settings on the recorder, digital dubbing is carried out in the same mode as the [AUDIO REC] mode of the playback tape.

The images on the recorder monitor may be disturbed, but it does not affect the recorded images.

If a picture containing a copyright protection signal (copy guard) is recorded by the movie

camera, the picture is distorted by mosaic-like patterns at playback.

Disconnect the USB cable since input signals from the external input terminal cannot be recorded while it is connected with the USB cable.

When wide images are input, the display such as the menu screen or the operation icon is expanded horizontally.

While pictures are input from the DV terminal, the operation icon blinks on instead of appearing from the side of the screen when you press the centre of the joystick.
