The * in each model name is actually “ME” (indicating that a cassette memory
is contained), or “N” (indicating that no cassette memory is contained).
The numbers in each model name indicate the maximum recording/playback
time (in minutes) for each model. For example, the PDV-184ME has a
maximum recording/playback time of 184 minutes.

Notes
• If you insert an incorrect type of cassette, it will be automatically ejected.
• Although this unit can use DV series consumer cassettes, video or audio noise
may occur on some tapes.
For reliable playback, editing, recording, and storage, use DVCAM cassettes.
• Cassettes that have been recorded by a DV-format recorder can be played
back on this unit but cannot be used for recording at editing operation. When
you insert such a cassette into this unit, the NO EDIT indicator lights up in the
display section on the front panel of this unit.
