*To use the VIDEO terminals instead of the terminal, connect the TV to the camcorder’s VIDEO OUT terminal using a BNC cable (commercially available), or connect the TV to the camcorder’s VIDEO IN/OUT terminal using an RCA video cable (commercially available).

We recommend powering the camcorder from a household power outlet.

TV sets equipped with the WSS System: Recordings made with a 16:9 aspect ratio ( 38) will be played automatically in widescreen mode whether you connect the camcorder to the TV using the S (S1-) VIDEO terminal or the VIDEO terminal.

During fast forward playback, rewind playback and reverse playback of a tape recorded in HDV standard, the picture may be distorted.
