VIDEO IN connectors (BNC type)
There are the following VIDEO IN connectors for
inputting analog video signals:
• Y/S-Y/CPST (loop-through connectors)
• R–Y/S-C
• B–Y
The signals input to these connectors depend on the
selection made with the SD VIDEO button
in the video/audio input selection section. The selection is
indicated in the video area of the input signal display
The analog video signals that can be input to these
connectors are as follows.
• When COMPOSITE is selected
The two Y/S-Y/CPST connectors are loop-through
connectors. When using the signal input to the left
connector as a composite video signal, for example, you
can bridge-connect the signal to other equipment via the
right connector (marked
). When no connection is
made to the right connector, the left connector is
terminated with an impedance of 75
Ω
automatically.
• When S VIDEO is selected
• When Y–R, B is selected

AUDIO IN 1/3, 2/4 connectors (XLR 3-pin, female)
Use these connectors to input analog audio signals from an
external video cassette player or other audio equipment.
The signals input to these connectors are recorded on the
audio channels determined by the current audio recording
mode, as follows.
• When in 2-channel (48 kHz) mode
• When in 4-channel (32 kHz) mode
You can switch the audio recording mode with the REC
MODE menu item
. However, HDV
recording is always 2-channel mode, regardless of the
menu item setting.
