Digital Video System
In a digital video system, images and sounds are
converted into digital signals and recorded on a tape.
This complete digital recording is capable of recording
and playback with minimal image and sound
deterioration.
In addition, it automatically records data, such as Time
Code and Date/Time, as digital signals.
Compatibility with S-VHS or VHS Cassettes
Because this Camcorder employs a digital system for
recording image and sound data, it is not compatible
with conventional S-VHS or VHS video equipment that
employs an analog recording system.
The size and shape of the Cassettes are also different.
Compatibility with Output Signals
Because AV signal output from the AV signal output
Jack is analog (the same as conventional video
systems), this Camcorder can be connected with
S-VHS or VHS video or a TV for playback.
