Frequently Asked Questions - DCR-SR82C SONY
How much video can I record on the DCR-SR82C's built-in hard disk drive?
The built-in 30 GB HDD stores approximately 7 hours in HQ mode, 10 hours in SP mode, and 20 hours in LP mode at standard definition quality. Actual times vary with scene content and recording conditions.
How do I transfer videos from the camcorder to my computer?
Connect the camcorder to your computer using the supplied USB 2.0 cable. Set the USB Connect mode to Mass Storage or USB Direct, select the video files on the built-in HDD, and copy them to your computer. You can then use the bundled software for editing and playback.
Can I take still photos with this camcorder?
Yes, the DCR-SR82C can capture still photographs to a Memory Stick Duo card. Press the PHOTO button in recording mode to take a still image, and switch the mode dial to access the playback menu.
What type of memory card is compatible with the DCR-SR82C?
For still images, the camcorder accepts Memory Stick Duo and Memory Stick PRO Duo cards. Standard Memory Stick cards are not physically compatible with the slot.
How do I protect the built-in hard disk drive?
Avoid subjecting the camcorder to shock or vibration while recording or when transferring data. The drive features a 3G sensor protection that helps to park the read/write head when impact is detected. Do not remove the battery or disconnect AC power while the HDD is in use.
How long does the supplied battery last?
The included NP-FH40 battery provides about 90 minutes of recording time when using the LCD screen, and slightly longer if you use the electronic viewfinder. Actual battery life depends on zoom, standby, and environmental conditions.
Can I use a higher-capacity battery?
Yes, the camcorder is compatible with Sony NP-FH50, NP-FH70, and NP-FH100 batteries. These last significantly longer and are interchangeable with the standard NP-FH40.
What is the best way to clean the lens?
Use a soft lens brush or blower to remove dust, then gently wipe with a microfiber lens cloth if needed. Avoid touching the glass with your fingers, and never use liquid cleaners directly on the lens.
Is the user manual available as a PDF?
Yes, the free user manual for the Sony DCR-SR82C is available as a PDF download on the product page. You can save it to your computer or print it for easy reference.
What should I do if the camcorder freezes or stops responding?
First, remove the AC adapter and the battery, then wait about one minute and reconnect them. If the problem persists, press the RESET button located near the battery terminal with a pointed object. This restores the default settings and clears most temporary errors.
