●When a Snapshot is taken in a dark environment, the still image recorded onto the tape and stored in memory will become coarse and its true colors will be lost.

●The Snapshot mode can also be used during playback. However, only the Full mode is available regardless of the Snapshot mode setting, and the shutter sound is not heard.
