signals in DVCAM format. Data recorded in MPEG HD
format is output after being converted into DVCAM
format.

• The nonlinear editing system to be connected to this unit

requires editing software (not supplied) supporting the
DVCAM format.

AUDIO CONTROL >DV OUT MODE (see page 87) in
the setup menu to select the audio mode (the factory
default is “2ch”).

number of pins on the i.LINK connector of your laptop
computer, and use an appropriate i.LINK cable.
