Snapshot (For Video Recording)

This feature lets you record still images that look like photographs onto a tape.

1Set the Recording Mode Switch to “HD”, “SD” or “DV”.

2Set the Power Switch to “A” or “M” while pressing down the Lock Button located on the switch.

3Open the LCD monitor fully, or pull out the viewfinder fully.

4Press SNAPSHOT.

The “O” indication appears and a still image will be recorded for approx. 6 seconds, then the camcorder re-enters the Record- Standby mode.

You can perform Snapshot also during recording. A still image will be recorded for approx. 6 seconds, then the normal recording resumes.

To record still images not only on the tape but also in the memory card

Set “REC SELECT” to “/”. ( pg. 38) •The image size recorded in the memory card

differs depending on the recording mode; 640 x 480 (DV), 848 x 480 (SD) or 1280 x 720 (HD).

NOTES:

To remove the shutter sound, refer to “BEEP” on page 36.

Certain modes of Program AE ( pg. 48) are disabled during Snapshot recording. In such a case, the icon blinks.

If SNAPSHOT is pressed when “OIS” is set to “ON” ( pg. 35), the Stabiliser will be disabled.

During Snapshot recording, the image displayed in the viewfinder may be partially missing. However, there is no effect in the recorded image.

Motor Drive Mode

Keeping SNAPSHOT pressed in step 4 provides an effect similar to serial photography. (Interval between still images: approx. 1 second)

The Motor Drive mode is disabled when “REC

SELECT” is set to “/”. ( pg. 38)

Exposure Control

Manual exposure control is recommended in the following situations:

When shooting using reverse lighting or when the background is too bright.

When shooting on a reflective natural background such as at the beach or when skiing.

When the background is overly dark or the subject is bright.

2Open the LCD monitor fully, or pull out the viewfinder fully.

3Press the EXPOSURE Wheel in.

The exposure control indicator appears.

4To brighten the image, rotate the EXPOSURE Wheel towards R. To darken the image, rotate the EXPOSURE Wheel towards T. (maximum ±10)

+3 exposure has the same effect as the backlight compensation. ( pg. 43)

–3 exposure has the same effect as when “r” is set to “SPOTLIGHT”. ( pg. 48)

To return to automatic exposure control...

Press the EXPOSURE Wheel in. Or, set the Power Switch to “A”.

NOTE:
