• When dubbing to a DVD recorder from your 
camcorder through an i.LINK cable, you may 
not operate your camcorder on your DVD 
recorder even if its instruction manual says you 
can. If you can set the input mode to HDV or 
DV on your DVD recorder and can input/output 
pictures, follow the steps in “Dubbing to another 
device.”

Tips
• To record the date/time and camera settings data 
when connected by the A/V connecting cable, 
display them on the screen.
• When you use an i.LINK cable, the video and 
sound signals are transmitted digitally, 
producing high quality pictures.
• When an i.LINK cable is connected, the format 
of the output signal (
 
 or 
 
) will be indicated on the LCD screen of 
your camcorder.
Recording pictures 
from a VCR 
You can record pictures from a VCR on a 
tape. You can record a scene as a still image 
on a “Memory Stick Duo.” You can record 
pictures in the HDV format by connecting 
an HDV1080i specification compatible 
device. Be sure to insert a cassette or a 
“Memory Stick Duo” for recording in your 
camcorder beforehand.
You can connect your camcorder to a VCR 
device using an i.LINK cable.
Connect your camcorder to the wall socket 
using the supplied AC Adaptor for this 
operation (p. 15). Refer also to the 
instruction manuals supplied with the 
devices to be connected.

Notes
• You need an i.LINK cable for this operation.
• You cannot perform this operation with the A/V 
connecting cable. 
• Your camcorder has a 4-pin i.LINK terminal. 
Select a cable that fits the terminal on the device 
to be attached.
• Your camcorder can only record from a PAL 
source. For example, French video or TV 
programs (SECAM) cannot be recorded 
correctly. See page 101 for details on TV color 
systems.
• If you use a 21-pin adaptor to input PAL source, 
you need a dual direction 21-pin adaptor 
(optional).
