Notes on using “Memory Stick Micro”
To use a “Memory Stick Micro” with your
camcorder, you need a Duo-sized M2 Adaptor.
Insert the “Memory Stick Micro” into the Duo-
sized M2 Adaptor, and then insert the adaptor
into the Memory Stick Duo slot. If you insert
a “Memory Stick Micro” into your camcorder
without using a Duo-sized M2 Adaptor, you
might not be able to remove it from your
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
PRO 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 PRO
Duo” that has been used with another device,
format it with your camcorder (p. 53). Note
that formatting erases all information on the
“Memory Stick PRO 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
About the “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack
Your camcorder operates only with an
“InfoLITHIUM” battery pack (H series).
“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.
After charging is complete, disconnect the cable
from the DC IN jack on the Handycam Station
or your camcorder, then 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
Use a large capacity battery pack: NP-FH70/
FH100 (optional)
Frequent use of the LCD screen or a frequent
playback, fast forward or rewind operation
wears out the battery pack faster.
We recommend using a large capacity battery
pack: NP-FH70/FH100 (optional).
Be sure to set the POWER switch to OFF
(CHG) when not recording or playing back
on your camcorder. The battery pack is also
consumed when your camcorder is in recording
standby or playback pause.
Have spare battery packs ready for two or
three times the expected recording time, and
make trial recordings before making the actual
recording.
Do not expose the battery pack to water. The
battery pack is not water resistant.
