Connecting to Other Devices – PC

You can connect your camcorder to a PC for copying or editing recorded video.

DV and USB connections are supported.

This function works only in the Camera

(PLAY) mode.

Using the IEEE1394 cable (DV cable), you can connect your camcorder to a PC which supports the IEEE 1394 connection.

Windows Movie Maker and other Video Capturing Software can take input from your camcorder through this connection.
Refer to the corresponding video editing software product’s documentation for further information on capturing and
manipulating the video.

A Standard DV connection is quite simple. If a product has a DV port (or FireWire), you can transfer data by connecting to
the DV port using a proper cable. Be careful since there are two types of DV ports (4pin and 6pin). This camcorder has a
4pin terminal.

With a digital connection established, both the video and audio signals are transmitted in native DV digital format, allowing
high quality, real-time image transfer.
