Dubbing/Editing

Recording pictures from a VCR

You can record pictures from a VCR on a
tape. You can record a scene as a still image
on a "Memory Stick Duo." You can record
pictures in the HDV format by connecting
an HDV1080i specification compatible
device. Be sure to insert a cassette or a
"Memory Stick Duo" for recording in your
camcorder beforehand.
You can connect your camcorder to a VCR
device using an i.LINK cable.
Connect your camcorder to the wall socket
using the optional AC Adaptor for this
operation (p. 16). Refer also to the
instruction manuals supplied with the
devices to be connected.
b Notes
• You need an i.LINK cable for this operation.
• You cannot perform this operation with the
video and audio cable.
• Your camcorder has a 6-pin i.LINK terminal.
Select a cable that fits the terminal on the device
to be attached.
• Your camcorder can only record from a PAL
source. For example, French video or TV
programs (SECAM) cannot be recorded
correctly. See page 102 for details on TV color
systems.
• If you use a 21-pin adaptor to input PAL source,
you need a dual direction 21-pin adaptor
