AG-HSC1U questions

Does anyone know how the external hard drive will work with the AG-HSC1U? It would seem that the only way to play the stored content is to copy it back to the SDHC card somehow (though I only see one "Copy" button in the picture of the drive.

It doesn't appear that the camera will be able to hook up to the hard drive and stream content from the hard drive to a tv.

Ideas?

The VW-PT2 is for storage only from what I can see from the Panasonic guide. I dont read Japanese but I see USB alot in the following doc.

Thanks for the manual link. From what I can gather from the pictures, it doesn't look like you can copy from the hdd back to the camera. It appears the only way you could do it is to connect both the camera and the hdd to a computer, then swap files between the two devices as they appear as hdd's.

This takes away somewhat from the camera and hdd in the field; for, once it is copied to the hdd and removed from the SDHC card there's no getting it back without a computer.

Not a deal breaker, but it would be nice to be able to reverse the process.
