Editing

Editing onto another tape

You can save the recorded picture and create your own video program by editing with

any other h 8 mm, H Hi8, j VHS, k S-VHS, VHSC, K S-VHSC, l Betamax VCR or DV that has video/audio inputs.

Before editing

Connect the camcorder to the VCR using the supplied A/V connecting cable. Set the input selector on the VCR to LINE, if available.

If your VCR is a stereo type

Connect only the black plug for audio L (left) on the VCR. With this connection, the sound is monaural even in stereo models.

Starting editing

Turn off the speaker of the camcorder while editing. Otherwise, picture distortion may occur.

(1) Insert a blank tape (or a tape you want to record over) into the VCR.

(2) Play back the recorded video cartridge on the camcorder until you locate the point just before where you want to start editing, then press P to set the camcorder in playback pause mode.

(3) On the VCR, locate the recording start point and set the VCR in recording pause mode.

(4) First press P on the camcorder, and after a few seconds press P on the VCR when you want to start editing.

To edit more scenes

Repeat steps 2 to 4.
