Connecting a Number of Camcorders
When using two or more synchronized camcorders,
connect an external sync signal to the GEN LOCK IN
connector, supplying a VBS or BS signal. The
camcorder will then operate synchronized to this
signal.
You can adjust the synchronization using the basic
menu page 5. (See page 94.) Note
When you fit the optional DSBK-501/501P, set the
VIDEO IN to CAM using the basic menu page 4. (see
page 93.)
