When an HDV-compatible video format (SP
1440×1080/59.94i, SP 1440×1080/50i, or SP
1440×1080/23.98P) or a DVCAM-compatible
video format (format of SD Mode) is selected,
setting “SDI/HDMI/i.LINK I/O Select”
of the VIDEO SET menu to “HDV” or
“DVCAM” enables signal inputs/outputs via the
i.LINK (HDV/DV) connector.
You can record the same images as those
recorded on an SxS memory card in this
camcorder on an external device connected to the
i.LINK (HDV/DV) connector, or record playback
pictures of the external device on the memory
card in the camcorder.
DVCAM stream audio is only available in 48 kHz
16-bit 2-channel lock audio format.
Notes
• Use the i.LINK (HDV/DV) connector only for one-to-
one i.LINK connection.
• When you change a setting which affects output
signals from the i.LINK (HDV/DV) connector, such as
“System” of the OTHERS menu or “SDI/HDMI/
i.LINK I/O Select” and “Down Converter” of the
VIDEO SET menu, disconnect the i.LINK cable then
change the setting. Changing such a setting with the
i.LINK cable connected may cause improper operation
of the connected i.LINK device.
• When “NW&Proxy/USB” is set to “Network&Prxoy,”
signals are not input/output from the i.LINK
connector.
i.LINK and

While recording (or standing by to record), the
picture being shot with this camcorder is output as
an HDV or DVCAM stream via the i.LINK
(HDV/DV) connector. It can be recorded on a
connected HDV or DVCAM recorder in
synchronization with the REC START/STOP
operation on this camcorder.

Notes
• Operation may be different depending on the type of
external device.
• There is some time lag from when you start recording
until the i.LINK status indication changes. Recording
does not start on the connected i.LINK device before it
enters synchronization even if “Trigger Mode” is set to
“Both.”
• While you can record shot marks on the memory card
during recording, they are not added to the pictures
recorded on the external device.
