Editing - Sharp ViewCam VL-A111S Operation Manual

Editing

Video editing lets you refine your videos by
removing unwanted sequences from your tape,
or transposing one sequence with another.
This VIEWCAM lets you monitor the source pro-
gram on the built-in LCD monitor without
having to connect it to an external TV or video
monitor.
Connect the VIEWCAM to a VCR with the sup-
plied audio/video cable, as shown.
