NOTES:

For Digital Dubbing, this camcorder can be connected only to one device at a time. This camcorder can also be used as a recorder.

If a blank portion or disturbed image is played back on the player during dubbing, the dubbing may stop so that an unusual image is not dubbed.

If “Playback Zoom” (pg. 40), “Playback Special Effects” (pg. 41) or “Snapshot” is attempted during playback, only the original playback image recorded on the tape is output from the DV IN/OUT connector.
