There are some limitations to down convert a tape
recorded in HDV format to DVCAM format.
For details, see “i.LINK SET” on page 69.
Notes
If you output pictures in the playback pause mode
when connected with an i.LINK cable, recorded
images may appear distorted.
•When the tape is recorded in HDV format, the picture
is output as a simplified picture during playback in
various speeds (page 37).
•When connected with an i.LINK cable, you cannot
output only pictures or sounds separately.
• When you duplicate down converted signals from
HDV to DVCAM on an HDV/DV cassette in
DVCAM format, the available recording time is
reduced to about 2/3 of the recording time indicated
on the tape. However, when a DVCAM cassette is
recorded using DVCAM format, the available
recording time is the same as the recording time
indicated on the DVCAM cassette.
