Select [AV DV], set it to [ON] and close themenu. Depending on the signal sent from the connected device, the conversion from analog to digitalsignals might not work properly (e.g., signals that include copyright protection signals oranomalous signals such as ghost signals). For normal use, set [AV DV] to [OFF]. If it is set to [ON], digital signals cannot be input via thecamcorder’s HDV/DV terminal.

We recommend powering the camcorder from a household power outlet. You can also press the AV DV button on the wireless controller.
