Converting the Video
• Blank sections may be recorded as
anomalous picture.
• If the picture does not appear, disconnect the
DV cable and restore the connection after a
short while or turn the camcorder off and then
on again.
• Do not connect any devices to the
camcorder's USB terminal while an external
device is connected to the HDVIDV terminal.
• You can only record video signals in HDV
