Simple Editing to a VCR

E
Preparations
1. Connect the camera to the VCR.
• See "Connections for Playback on a TV Screen" on p. 24.
2. Prepare the TV and VCR.
• Turn on the TV and set it to the video channel, or set the TV/VIDEO selector to VIDEO.
• Turn on the VCR, and set its input selector to LINE. Load a blank cassette, and put the
VCR in record pause mode.
• See your TV and VCR instruction manuals for details.
3. Turn the camera's program selector to PLAY, and load your recorded cassette.
Basic editing
1. Find a point on your prerecorded cassette slightly before the section you want
to copy.
2. Start to play it back while you monitor the picture on the TV.
3. Start recording on the VCR as soon as the section you want to copy appears
on the screen.
4. Pause the VCR at the end of the section you want to copy, then stop playback
on the camera.
5. Repeat steps 1 to 4 until your edited recording is complete.
Note:
• The quality of the edited tape will be slightly lower than that of the original.
