Usable Cassettes
This unit can use the DVCAM cassettes listed below.
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.
Cassettes usable for playback only
Large- and medium-size DVCPRO (25 Mbps) cassettes are usable for playback
only.
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.
