in the
viewfinder.
Notes
•
Operation may be different depending on the
type of external device.
•
Although there is some time lag from which you
press the REC START/STOP button until the
i.LINK status indication changes, the same
pictures are recorded on the memory card in this
camcorder and the external device if “Trigger
Mode” is set to “Both.”
•
While you can record shot marks on the
memory card during recording, they are not
added to the pictures recorded on the external
device.
You can transfer an HDV stream to a nonlinear
editing system connected via the i.LINK(HDV)
connector.
Notes
•
The i.LINK(HDV) connector of this camcorder
is a 4-pin connector. Check the number of pins
of the i.LINK connector on your computer and
use an appropriate i.LINK cable.
•
In searching pictures of this camcorder on the
computer, it may take some time until the
display is reflected on the computer.
•
If the playback clip is short or the playback
starting point is near the end of the clip, the
i.LINK signal may be interrupted between the
clip and the next clip. When you try to capture
such a signal using the nonlinear editing system,
a malfunction may occur, depending on the
nonlinear editing software in use.
•
If you specify a search speed other than 4 or 15
times normal with the nonlinear editing system,
no i.LINK signal is fed out. In such a case, the
picture may stay frozen.
