Connecting to a DV Device (DVD Recorder, Camcorder, etc.)
Connecting to other standard DV products.
- A standard DV connection is quite simple.
- If a device has a DV jack, you can transfer data from this camcorder to it by connecting to the DV jack using
the correct DV cable (not supplied).
- This camcorder has a 4-pin jack. To connect to a DV device (such as a DVD camcorder) which has a 6-pin
jack, use a DV 4-pin-to-6pin cable. To connect to another device which has a 4-pin jack, use a DV 4-pin-to-
4pin cable.
With a digital connection, video and audio signals are transmitted in digital format, allowing high quality images to
be transferred.
Connecting to a PC
If you want to transmit data to a PC, you must install an IEEE 1394 add-on card into the PC. (not supplied)
The frame rate for moving images is dependent on the capacity of the PC.
