Main Menu {continued}

The FlashBack feature records a movie for a user-selected period of time (5, 10, 15 or 20 seconds). You will select the Flashback menu icon and press the Menu button to activate recording. You can record for as long as you like, but you will only save a recording for the period of time you have selected. For example, if you chose 10 seconds, only the last ten seconds of the recording will remain in memory and be saved—the rest of the recording is discarded.

To select a period of time, go to the Flashback Period submenu (located under the Settings menu; see FLASHBACK PERIOD, page 15). The camera remembers the last setting you choose in this menu.

This feature is very useful when you wish to capture a short activity, but are not sure when it will begin.

For example, if you wish to record a baseball pitcher throwing a pitch:

1.Select the Settings menu and press the Menu button.

2.Select the Flashback Period submenu and press the Menu button. Select 10 seconds and press the Menu button.

3.Select Back and press the Menu button.

4.Select Flashback and press the Menu button. You are now in Preview mode.

5.Press the Shutter button to begin recording while the pitcher prepares. After the pitcher throws the ball, click on the shutter button again to turn off recording. “Saving” displays on the LCD screen.” You’ll have saved only the last ten seconds of the pitcher’s activity.

6.Select Playback mode to review your movie. If you wish to perform another flashback recording, just press the Shutter button to begin recording again. Choose another setting from the menu to exit this mode.
