• The maximum memory capacity of a “Memory
Stick PRO Duo” that can be used on your
camcorder is 8 GB.
Notes on using “Memory Stick Micro”
• To use a “Memory Stick Micro” with the
camcorder, you need a Duo-sized M2 Adaptor.
Insert the “Memory Stick Micro” into the Duo-
sized M2 Adaptor, then insert the adaptor into
the Memory Stick Duo slot. If you insert a
“Memory Stick Micro” into the camcorder
without using a Duo-sized M2 Adaptor, you
might not be able to remove it from the
camcorder.
• Do not leave the “Memory Stick Micro” within
the reach of small children. They might
accidentally swallow it.
On image data compatibility
• Image data files recorded on a “Memory Stick
Duo” by your camcorder conform to the
“Design rule for Camera File system” universal
standard established by the JEITA (Japan
Electronics and Information Technology
Industries Association).
• On your camcorder, you cannot play back still
images recorded on other devices (DCR-
TRV900E or DSC-D700/D770) that do not
conform to the universal standard. (These
models are not sold in some regions.)
• If you cannot use a “Memory Stick Duo” that
has been used with another device, format it
with your camcorder (p. 41). Note that
formatting erases all information on the
“Memory Stick Duo.”
• You may not be able to play back images with
your camcorder:
– When playing back image data modified on
your computer.
– When playing back image data recorded with
other devices.
This unit is compatible with an
“InfoLITHIUM” battery pack (H series).
Your camcorder operates only with an
“InfoLITHIUM” battery pack.
“InfoLITHIUM” H series battery packs
have the
mark.
What is an “InfoLITHIUM” battery
pack?
An “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack is a
lithium-ion battery pack that has functions
for communicating information related to
operating conditions between your
camcorder and an optional AC Adaptor/
charger.
The “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack
calculates the power consumption
according to the operating conditions of
your camcorder, and displays the remaining
battery time in minutes.
To charge the battery pack
• Be sure to charge the battery pack before you
start using your camcorder.
• We recommend charging the battery pack in an
ambient temperature of between 10 °C to 30 °C
(50 °F to 86 °F) until the CHG (charge) lamp
turns off. If you charge the battery pack outside
of this temperature range, you may not be able
to charge it efficiently.
• When charging the battery pack while the AC
Adaptor is connected to your camcorder, after
charging is complete, disconnect the cable from
the DC IN jack on your camcorder or remove
the battery pack.
To use the battery pack effectively
• Battery pack performance decreases when the
surrounding temperature is 10 °C (50 °F) or
below, and the length of time you can use the
battery pack becomes shorter. In that case, do
one of the following to use the battery pack for a
longer time.
– Put the battery pack in a pocket to warm it up,
and insert it in your camcorder right before
you start taking shots.
