conditions. Designed for use with compatible Sony InfoLITHIUM® batteries. 

2. Not all products with USB 2.0 connector may communicate with each other due to chipset 

variations.

the memory is used for data management functions. Actual available memory in MB's is: 8=7.5, 
16=15, 32=30, 64=61, 128=123, 256=220, 512=460, 1GB=940MB, 2GB=1.85GB, 4GB=3.66GB.

5. Playback on all home DVD players, computers, DVD drives, Blu-Ray Drives, PlayStation® 2 and 

PlayStation 3 consoles cannot be guaranteed. Some players’ drives and video game consoles lack 
the ability to read due to the optical reflection standard of DVD-R/RW disks and/or due to encoding 
incompatibilities. Refer to the specifications of your playback equipment for additional compatibility 
information. 

6. Use of Sony DVD-R/-RW/ RW and R DL Media recommended. For third party media, confirm 

compatibility with manufacturer. 

7. This camcorder captures high definition footage in the AVCHD format. Using the enclosed PC 

software, high definition footage can be copied onto DVD media. However, DVD media containing 
AVCHD footage should not be used with DVD based players or recorders, as the DVD 
player/recorder may fail to eject the media and may erase its contents without warning. DVD 
media containing AVCHD footage may be played on a compatible Blu-ray Disc™  player/recorder 
or other compatible device.
