Tips

For the recordable time and the number of recordable images, see pages 10 and 66.

You can record still images during movie recording by pressing PHOTO ([Dual Rec], (p. 28)).

In the default setting, a still image is recorded automatically on a “Memory Stick PRO Duo” when the camcorder detects a smile of a person during movie recording ([SMILE SHUTTER], p. 68). An orange frame appears around a face targeted for possible smile detection shot.

A white frame is shown on the detected face, and the detected face image is optimized automatically ([FACE DET. SETTING], p. 68).

You can capture still images from recorded movies (HDR-CX12E) (p. 47).

You can switch the shooting mode by touching (HOME) (or ) (CAMERA) [MOVIE] or [PHOTO].
