 Active Interface Shoe 
 (p. 67)
The Active Interface Shoe supplies 
power to optional accessories such as 
a video light, a flash, or a microphone. 
The accessory can be turned on or off 
as you operate the POWER switch on 
your camcorder. Refer to the operating 
instructions supplied with your 
accessory for details.
•  When you connect an accessory, open the 
shoe cover. Pull up the shoe cover, then 
rotate it to the direction of the arrow to 
open.
•  The Active Interface Shoe has a safety 
device for fixing the installed accessory 
securely. To connect an accessory, press 
down and push it to the end, and then 
tighten the screw. To remove an accessory, 
loosen the screw, and then press down and 
pull out the accessory.
•  When you are recording on a “Memory 
Stick Duo” with an external flash (optional) 
connected to the accessory shoe, turn off 
the power of the external flash to prevent 
charging noise being recorded.
•  You cannot use an external flash (optional) 
and the built-in flash at the same time.
•  When an external microphone (optional) 
is connected, it takes precedence over the 
internal microphone (p. 27).
