Copying Recordings to an External Video Recorder

In High Definition

Connect the camcorder to AVCHD-compatible digital video recorders to make perfect copies of your movies in high definition. If the external digital video recorder has an SD memory card slot, you can use the memory card to copy your movies without connecting the camcorder. Details will vary depending on the device used so be sure to refer to the instruction manual of the digital video recorder.

In Standard Definition

You can copy your movies by connecting the camcorder to a VCR or a digital video recorder with analog audio/video inputs. Video output will be in standard definition, although the original scenes are in high defi- nition.

Operating modes:

Connecting

Connect the camcorder to the VCR using Connection C. Refer to Connection Diagrams (0127).
