>From Sony DSR-45 manual (a deck which plays/records both DV & DVCAM),
page 101:
"There are two modes for audio recording: Lock mode and Unlock mode. In
Lock mode, the sampling frequencies of audio and video are
synchronized. In Unlock mode, which the consumer DV format adopts, the
two sampling frequencies are independent. The lock mode maintains high
compatibility with the higher formats (DVCAM) and is more effective
than the unlock mode in digital processing and smooth transition during
audio editing."
The accompanying chart lists DVCAM as Lock mode and DV as Unlock mode.
