Basic Shooting

When shooting a still image, it is not recorded onto the tape, but it is stored in the camcorder's built-in memory in the selected Picture Mode. A stored still image data can be transferred to a PC, saved, and processed using a Paint Software programme (☞ pg. 63). A still image processed on the PC can be also inserted onto a tape (☞ pg. 63).

•A still image is stored in the built-in memory and displayed for approx. 2 seconds. While the still image remains displayed, that image is in the process of being stored in memory, and it is therefore impossible to take another shot during that time. When the still image disappears and the scene you are currently aimed at appears on the screen, you may take another shot.

•The remaining number of shots available is displayed.

NOTES:

●The remaining number of shots varies according to the selected Picture Mode. In the “STANDARD” mode, twice as many still images can be shot as in the “FINE” mode.

●Six sample images have been stored in the built-in memory at the factory.

If you wish to delete them, first remove the “Protect” function (☞ pg. 59), then perform the “Delete” function (☞ pg. 60)
