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. (See page 79.)

Notes

• This is no power supply connection between the

camcorder and VCR. Provide separate power
supplies.

• The VTR connector always outputs the signals from

the camera (impossible to output the playback video
of the internal VCR), and disallows the CCU
connection.
