Usable cassettes and playback modes
Selecting cassette types
You can use the
mm, H Hi8, j VHS, k S-VHS,
cassette.
We recommend mini DV cassette with cassette memory.
There are two types of mini DV cassettes: with cassette memory and without cassette
memory. We recommend you to use the tape with cassette memory. The IC memory is
mounted on this type of mini DV cassette. This camcorder can read and write data such
as dates of recording or titles, etc. to this memory. The functions using the cassette
memory require successive signals recorded on the tape. If the tape has a blank portion
in the beginning or between the recorded portions, a title may not be displayed
properly or the search functions may not work properly. Not to make any blank portion
on the tape, operate the followings.
Press END SEARCH to go to the end of the recorded portion before you begin the next
recording if you operate the followings:
– you have ejected the cassette while recording.
– you have played back the tape in the VTR mode.
If there is a blank portion or discontinuous signal on your tape, re-record from the
beginning to the end of the tape concerning above.
* The same result may occur when you record using a digital video camera recorder
without a cassette memory function on a tape recorded by one with the cassette
memory function.
