Recording backup images

Images recorded with this video can be
automatically backed up to external devices
(Page 88) connected to the DV terminal.
Set external device controls with the DV
CONTROL and DV CMD SEL items in the setting
menu OTHER FUNCTIONS screen.
Note the following when recording backup
images.
• Since menu item settings are saved even after
power is switched OFF, images may overwrite
media on connected devices if this camera
is used while the backup recording setting is
enabled.
• If an additional AG-HMC80 unit is used as an
external device for recording backup images,
set the DV CONTROL item (Page 110) in
the external device to OFF and use in DV IN
mode.
• Backup image recording may not work
properly when  or more external devices are
connected.
• Make sure the length of the DV (1394) cable
used for connections does not exceed 4.5 m.
• Make sure the DV (1394) signal can be
recorded with external devices when recording
backup images.
• When recording backup images set to CHAIN
for the DV CONTROL item (Page 110) in the
setting menu OTHER FUNCTIONS screen,
backup images will automatically be recorded
by backup devices set to record standby mode
when the camera's media has nearly run out
during shooting.
• When conducting REC CHECK, note that
those images will also be recorded.
• The backup recording function does not work
after interval recording.
