ª Audio Dubbing

≥The blank section of a tape cannot be dubbed.
≥Sounds sent through the DV Terminal cannot be 

dubbed.

≥If a tape has a non-recorded portion when the tape 

is dubbed, images and sounds may be disturbed 
when this portion of the tape is played back.

≥If you set the tape counter back to 0 at the position 

where you want to stop Audio Dubbing so as to 
make it possible to use the Memory Stop Function 
(

l 56), Audio Dubbing is terminated automatically 

when the tape reaches this position.

≥In the case of importing data recorded with Audio 

Dubbing to a PC using the PC’s software 
programme, only the original sound (ST1) may be 
imported, depending on the software programme.

ª Recording the Contents of Other 

≥When the Movie Camera is connected with other 

digital video equipment through its DV Terminal, 
images recorded in analog form from other 
external equipment can be output to the digital 
video equipment through the DV Terminal.

ª Using the DV Cable for Recording 

≥Regardless of the setting, digital dubbing is carried 

out automatically in the same audio recording 
mode as that of the Cassette on the playback-side.

is defective, the [INCOMPATIBLE IMAGE]
