2pac 6 #1 October 23, 2002 HELLO TO ALL, I HAVE A QUESTION TO OWNERS OF AN U.S. SONY PC-101,OR TO ALL WHO HAVE PURCHASED A PC 101 IN THE U.S. IS IT POSSIBLE TO PLAYBACK THE TAPE ON PAL TVs? I´M FROM EUROPE,CROATIA AND FOUND A GOOD OFFER REGARDING THE PC-101 IN THE U.S. THIS MODEL HAS HERE IN EUROPE A PAL,NTSC SWITCH SO WE CAN IT ON BOTH FORMATS. THANXwww.slobodanpad.hr www.skydiveadria.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Craig 0 #2 October 24, 2002 What's up with that poll?? I do not thing the US 101's can playback PAL. My box says "For NTSC System" I don't know of any settings in the camera that will allow it either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FeFe 0 #4 October 24, 2002 Neither an owner nor purchaser, though have some experience (with a top US team bringing an NTSC cam to a European comp despite FAI rules ). NO, you won't be able to playback on PAL TVset (until it has multy-system support... most of modern European sets has this feature... if not you can plug your cam to a multy-sys videorecorder which may work as a de-coder). Interestingly enough, if you fire-wire your NTSC miniDV to a PAL miniDV, you will be able to copy your NTSC material (you also can play out NTSC video on a PAL miniDV). But even recorded by a PAL cam, video will appear to be recorded in NTSC! Looks like you can get a cam cheaper in the States, but is it worth all the trouble with playback/exchange? Doubt it.
