Getting Started
Notes
•Do not press the cassette compartment down. Doing so may cause a malfunction.
•The cassette compartment may not be closed when you press any part of the cassette
compartment other than the
mark.
•Your camcorder records pictures in the Digital8 system.
• The recording time when you use your camcorder is half of the indicated time on Hi8
tape. If you select the LP mode in the menu settings, the recording time is 3/4 of
the indicated time on Hi8
tape.
•If you use standard 8 mm tape, be sure to play back the tape on your camcorder.
Mosaic noise may appear when you play back standard 8 mm tape on other
camcorders (including another DCR-TRV150/TRV250/TRV350/TRV351).
To prevent accidental erasure
