Structure of Data Recorded on This DVD Camcorder

Movies and stills recorded using this DVD camcorder will be stored on the DVD-RAM disc in units of scene, in the order of recording.

•Movie: One scene refers to images (of at least 3 seconds) recorded between each press of the REC button until recording is temporarily stopped by pressing REC again.

•Still: One scene refers to a still recorded by pressing PHOTO (a still recorded when the shutter opens once with interval recording).

The recorded scenes are collected as "programs" on each recording date. Only scenes on a specific date can be displayed by selecting one program.
