Note on the Remote Commander
Your camcorder works in the commander mode
VTR 2. Commander modes 1, 2 and 3 are used to
distinguish your camcorder from other Sony
VCRs to avoid remote control misoperation. If
you use another Sony VCR in the commander
mode VTR 2, we recommend changing the
commander mode or covering the sensor of the
VCR with black paper.
If you insert scenes on the tape recorded with
other camcorder (including other DCR-TRV30E)
The picture and sound may be distorted. We
recommend that you insert scenes on a tape
recorded with your camcorder.
When the inserted picture is played back
The picture and sound may be distorted at the
end of the inserted portion. This is not a
malfunction.
The picture and sound at the start point and the
end point may be distorted in the LP mode.
