Editing onto another tape

You can create your own video program by editing with any other DV,

mini DV,

h8 mm, HHi8, jVHS, kS-VHS, ￿VHSC, KS-VHSC or lBetamax VCR that has audio/video inputs. You can edit with little deterioration of picture and sound quality when using the DV connecting cable.

Before editing

Connect the camcorder to the VCR using the VMC-2DV DV connecting cable (not supplied) or the supplied A/V connecting cable.

Using the DV connecting cable

Simply connect the VMC-2DV DV connecting cable (not supplied) to DV IN/OUT and to DV IN/OUT of the DV products. With digital-to-digital connection, video and audio signals are transmitted in digital form for high-quality editing.

Notes on editing when using the DV connecting cable

•You can connect one VCR only.

•You can record picture, sound and system data at the same time on the DV products by using the DV connecting cable only.

•You cannot edit the titles, display indicator or the contents of cassette memory.

•If you record playback pause picture with the DV IN/OUT jack, the recorded picture becomes rough. And when you playback the picture using the other video equipment, the picture may jitter.

•You can also use the camcorder as a recorder with this connection. In this case “DV IN” indicator appears on the screen.

•When you use the camcorder as a recorder, the color balance may be incorrect on the monitor screen. But this is not recorded on the tape.
