Connecting an External
Device (i.LINK
Connection)
When an HDV-compatible video format (SP
1440/60i, SP 1440/50i, or SP 1440/24P) or a
DVCAM-compatible video format (format of SD
Mode) is selected, setting the "i.LINK I/O" of the
OTHERS menu to "HDV" or "DVCAM" enables
signal inputs/outputs via the i.LINK(HDV/DV)
connector.
You can record the same images as those
recorded on an SxS memory card in this
camcorder on an external device connected to the
i.LINK(HDV/DV) connector, or record playback
pictures (HDV streams) of the external device on
the memory card in the camcorder.
For playback, DVCAM streams of 16-bit 2-
channel lock audio are acceptable.
Nonlinear editing conforming to the HDV format
is also enabled.
Notes
• DVCAM streams cannot be recorded with the
camcorder.
• When you set "i.LINK I/O" of the OTHERS
menu to "HDV" or "DVCAM," no signal is
output from the SDI OUT connector. And
Slow&Quick Motion mode cannot be used with
"i.LINK I/O" set to "HDV" or "DVCAM."
• Use the i.LINK(HDV/DV) connector only for
one-to-one i.LINK connection.
• When you change a setting which affects output
signals from the i.LINK(HDV/DV) connector,
such as "i.LINK I/O," "HD/SD Mode," "Video
Format" of the OTHERS menu, "Output
Select," or "Down Converter" of the VIDEO
SET menu, disconnect the i.LINK cable then
change the setting. Changing such a setting with
the i.LINK cable connected may cause
