Transferring Video Tape Recordings to and from a Computer - ZR60, ZR65mc and ZR70mc

You can transfer recordings to and from a computer equipped with a IEEE1394 (DV) terminal or IEEE1394 capture board. Optional software is required for transferring recordings from the tape to a computer. Refer to the instruction manual of the software. Users of Windows XP can use the DV Network Software contained on the DIGITAL VIDEO SOLUTION DISK For Windows.

Operation may not work correctly depending on the software and the specifications/settings of your computer. If the computer freezes while you have connected the camcorder, disconnect and reconnect the DV cable. If the problem persists, disconnect the interface cable, turn off camcorder and computer, turn camcorder and computer back on and reconnect them. Do not disconnect the DV cable, open the memory card cover, remove the memory card, change the position of the POWER switch or turn off the camcorder and computer while data is being transferred to the computer (while the camcorder s card access indicator is flashing). Doing so may damage the memory card s data. The image files on your memory card and the image files saved on the hard disk drive of your computer are valuable, original data files. If you wish to use image files on your computer, make copies of them first, and use the copied file, retaining the original. Make sure that camcorder and computer are not connected with a USB cable before connecting the camcorder to the computer using the DV cable. Otherwise, the computer may not operate properly.

We recommend powering the camcorder from a household power source while it is connected to the computer. Refer also to the instruction manual of the computer.
