Notes on use

You can use only MICROMV

cassettes in your camcorder.

Your camcorder is based on the MICROMV format.

You can use only MICROMV cassettes with micro

Cassette Memory in your camcorder.

Notes on the MICROMV format

• Records and plays back for about 60 minutes with

quality equal to that of DV (digital video).

• The micro Cassette Memory feature is provided with

all

MICROMV cassettes. Your camcorder can

access any scene easily using the memory (Multi-

picture search function).

• Adopts the MPEG2 format as a data compression

method. This format is the same as the one for DVD

(digital versatile disc). Records in 12Mbps bit rate to

obtain a higher quality of image.

• Transition between the last scene you recorded and

the next scene is the still image. This is not a

malfunction.

The mark is indicated on the MICROMV

cassette.

Note on the type of “Memory Stick” you

can use in your camcorder

You can use only a “Memory Stick Duo,” which is

about half the size of an ordinary “Memory Stick,” in

your camcorder (p. 97).

The mark is indicated on the

“Memory Stick Duo.”

Notes on recording

• Before starting to record, test the recording function

to make sure the picture and sound are recorded

without any problems.

• Compensation for the contents of recordings cannot

be provided, even if recording or playback is not

possible due to a malfunction of the camcorder,

storage media, etc.

• TV color systems differ depending on the countries/

regions. To view your recordings on a TV, you need

a PAL system-based TV.

• Television programs, films, video tapes, and other

materials may be copyrighted.Unauthorized

recording of such materials may be contrary to the

copyright laws.

Notes on the LCD panel and lens

• The LCD screen is manufactured using extremely

high-precision technology, so over 99.99% of the

pixels are operational for effective use.

However, there may be some tiny black points and/

or bright points (white, red, blue, or green in color)

that appear constantly on the LCD screen.

These points are normal results of the manufacturing

process and do not affect the recording in any way.

• Exposing the LCD screen or the lens to direct

sunlight for long periods of time may cause

malfunctions. Be careful when placing the camera

near a window or outdoors.

• Do not aim at the sun. Doing so might cause your

camcorder to malfunction. Take pictures of the sun

only in low light conditions, such as at dusk.

Note on connecting other device

Before connecting your camcorder to other device

such as a VCR or a computer with an USB or i.LINK

cable, be sure to insert the connector plug in the proper

direction. If you insert the connector plug forcibly in

the wrong direction, the terminal may be damaged.

This may cause a malfunction of your camcorder.

Note on using this manual

• The images of the LCD screen used on this manual

are captured using a digital still camera, and thus

may appear different from what you see.

Notes on using the camcorder

• Hold your camcorder with your hand through the

loop of the hand strap as shown in the following

illustration.

• Be careful not to touch the lens.

• When you are using the touch panel, place your hand

on the back side of the LCD panel to support it.
