≥A cassette that was recorded in the S-VHS or S-VHS ET
format can also be played back on other S-VHS, S-VHS ET
or SQPB (S-VHS Quasi Playback) video equipment.
(However, with some equipment, playback may not be
possible. In that case, connect this Movie Camera directly to
the TV. (l 72))
≥If you want to record and play back with highest possible
picture quality or store the cassettes for a long time, we
recommend that you use S-VHS-C cassettes and record in
the S-VHS format.
≥If you record in the S-VHS ET format, the picture quality
may not be very good with certain types of cassettes. To
avoid negative surprises, we recommend that you make a
trial recording and confirm that the quality of the recorded
picture is satisfactory.
(To ensure optimum picture quality, we recommend the use
of HG (high-grade) type cassettes.)
