Playback FunctionsDisplaying information (data codes) recorded on a tape

If you record on a tape using a Sony digital camcorder (DSR-200/200P, 200A/200AP, PD100/PD100P, PD100A/PD100AP, PD150/PD150P, 250/250P, etc.), data codes can be recorded on the tape.

The data codes consist of recording date/time and camera data (the shutter speed, SteadyShot, iris, white balance, program AE mode, gain, date and time). You can check these data items during playback on this unit.

First, set the DISPLAY SELECT selector to DATA. If the selector is set to other than DATA, the data codes are not displayed.

Press the DATA CODE button on the Remote Commander during playback.

Each time you press the DATA CODE button, the display changes in sequence as follows:

no data code t recording date/time t camera data

tno data code .....

Also, using DATA CODE on the DISPLAY SET menu, you can select a data item to be displayed.

For details on the DISPLAY SET menu, see “DISPLAY SET menu” on page 62 (GB).

Notes

If the data codes were not recorded, “- - -” appears instead.

This unit cannot record camera data. Camera data items show the settings of a tape recorded by a digital camcorder (DSR-200/200P, 200A/200AP, PD100/ PD100P, PD100A/PD100AP, PD150/PD150P, 250/ 250P, etc.).

Some of the camera data items displayed by this unit are different from those shown on the digital camcorder.
