SWITCHING EXTERNAL INPUT RECORDING METHOD (PHOTO INPUT)

When “Input Source: LINE or S LINE” is specified, you can record stills of externally input images on either a DVD-RAM disc or a card. The DVD video camera/recorder can record an external image with little movement by specifying “Frame”, but “Field” is recommended for recording image with movement.

The DZ-BX35A cannot receive any externally input signal.
