„ Connecting the camcorder to your PC

Turn on the camcorder power.
When connecting the camcorder to a PC, connect the camcorder to a wall 
outlet instead of using the battery pack.

Choose the medium for connection to the PC (HDD(DZ-BD7HA)/BD/DVD/Card). 
The media selected on your camcorder before connecting to a PC can be 
accessed when the connection is established. (To choose the medium on the 
camcorder, use the Movie/Stills switch, and for the DZ-BD7HA, the power 
switch to switch between HDD and disc.)

Connect the camcorder to the PC using the supplied PC connection cable.

 

After the physical connection, the camcorder’s LCD monitor goes out and 
the camcorder-PC connection begins.
The camcorder is automatically recognized from the PC. After recognition, 
there are occasions when you will be required to restart the PC. In this case, 
restart the PC according to the indicated instructions.

Notes

• You cannot access to more than one media (HDD/BD/DVD/Card) at the 

same time.

• The selected medium cannot be changed during PC connection. Detach the 

PC connection cable from the PC (p.121), then switch the medium. 

• During PC connection, none of the camcorder buttons operates. 
• When the HDD or BD/DVD is being accessed, the ACCESS/PC indicator 

flashes in red.

• Note that the CARD ACCESS indicator does not flash even when the SD 

memory card in the camcorder is being accessed while the camcorder is 
connected to a PC.

• For precautions when connecting to a PC, see p.130.
• This camcorder cannot be connected to a Macintosh computer.
