Recording still images on PC cards (not
supplied) – memory photo recording
You can record still images with all the pixels (progressive) on an optional PC card.
Before operation
Insert a PC card into the unit.
(1) Set the POWER switch to MEMORY. Make sure that the lock knob is set to the
right (unlock) position.
(2) Keep pressing PHOTO lightly. A picture freezes and “CAPTURE” appears on the
LCD screen or in the viewfinder. Recording does not start yet.
(3) Press PHOTO deeper. The image displayed on the screen will be recorded on a PC
card. The recording is complete when the bar scroll indicator disappears.
When the POWER switch is set to MEMORY
The following functions do not work:
digital zoom (more than 12x), wide TV mode, digital effect, picture effect, title.
When you are recording a still image
You can neither turn off the power nor press PHOTO.
When you press the PHOTO button on the Remote Commander
The camcorder immediately records the image that is on the screen when you press the
button.
When using a video light (not supplied) or similar equipment mounted on the
intelligent accessory shoe
Recording an image on a PC card may result in a temporary power shortage in the
accessory shoe, causing the video light to go out. This is not a malfunction.
