Dubbing/Editing
Connecting to a VCR
or TV
You can record the picture from a VCR or TV
to a tape or a “Memory Stick Duo” inserted
into your camcorder (p. 94). You can also
create a copy of the picture recorded on your
camcorder on other recording device (p. 93).
Connect your camcorder to a TV or VCR as
shown in the following illustration.
Connect your camcorder to the wall outlet
using the supplied AC Adaptor during the
operation.
*1 The supplied A/V connecting cable has a video
plug and an S video plug for the video connection.
*2 This connection produces higher quality DV format
pictures. When there is an S video jack on the
device to be connected, connect the S video plug to
that jack instead of using the yellow video plug.
The audio will not be output when you connect with
the S video plug alone.
