camcorder to your Mac via USB, launch 

iMovie and start importing by clicking the 

camcorder icon. Select ‘Use original quality’ 

to ensure the best quality, and to maintain 

file sizes at an optimum.

How do I play my videos on TV?

 • To play back on TV, please use an HDMI 

connector (mini HDMI to standard HDMI) 

if your TV accepts HDMI input.

Why is there no lens cover?

 • The camcorder comes without a lens 

cover, keeping it simple to use and fuss-

free. It is made of robust material that 

doesn’t scratch under normal usage. A 

travel pouch and a lens cloth are provided, 

allowing you to keep the camcorder clean.

What format does the camcorder record in?

 • The camcorder uses the same video 

format as Blu-ray players and discs – H.264. 

This highly sophisticated format delivers 

superb HD picture quality.

What does pre-record mean that is in the 

setting?

 • The pre-record button is designed to 

let you never miss a moment. When 

you enable the pre-record function, the 

camcorder will record video 3 seconds 

before you have pressed the record 

button. So when you play-back the 

recorded film, you will automatically 

see the first 3 seconds before you have 

pressed the record button. This can be 

useful when filming unexpected moments. 

The pre-record function will not drain 

battery life, it will operate as normal.

Tips on video making

 • You can easily look back on fun moments 

and relive them with the camcorder. To 

enjoy these memories to the fullest, here 

are some simple video tips:

•  When capturing videos, hold your 

camcorder steady in your hand

Why does the camcorder sometimes not 

record the right color?

 • To record both indoors and outdoors, 

and not having to change any settings, 

the camcorder has an automatic white-

balance correction. This enables you to 

record both indoors and outdoors where 

the amount of light in the environment 

changes. If you move fast from outdoors to 

indoors, the camcorder might need some 

time to correct that, and in extreme cases 

the colors might seem a bit unnatural. 

However, after a few seconds this will be 

corrected automatically by the camcorder.

Can I connect the camcorder directly to TV, 

DVD/Blu-ray player or Home Cinema set via 

their USB-port?

 • The USB plug is designed to share your 

videos/pictures to your PC or Laptop. You 

can plug the CAM102B directly into your 

TV, DVD/Blu-ray player or Home cinema 

set (called the host from this point on), 

and it will play the pictures that are stored 

on the CAM102B. To play the videos from 

the CAM102B, it depends if your host 

supports the file format H.264 of the 

CAM102B. Most Blu-ray enabled players 

are able to play this format.

How do I connect it to a Windows PC/laptop?

 • Connect the camcorder to your PC/laptop 

via USB. The USB pop-out connector is 

strong enough to support the camcorder 

when it is plugged into the PC’s USB port. 

For easy sharing and editing, install the 

software program (Media Impression HD) 

that comes with the camcorder.

How do I connect it to a Mac?

 • The camcorder works with the Mac 

via USB. The USB pop-out connector is 

strong enough to support the camcorder 

when it is plugged into the USB port. The 

camcorder works great with the iMovie 

software, which is part of the iLife package 

that comes with your Mac. To transfer 

videos using iMovie, simply connect the
