To switch between frame still and field still

When an image recorded in Frame Recording mode is displayed in Still-Picture mode, pressing the SEARCH FRAME/FIELD button alternately switches between frame still and field still.

To advance or reverse the still picture frame by frame

Using the Jog dial, frame-by-frame playback can be done in both the forward and reverse directions. Turning the Jog dial clockwise advances the pictures frame by frame, and turning it counterclockwise reverses the pictures frame by frame.

Variable-Speed Playback

The Jog and Shuttle dials enable playback at various speeds.

With the Jog dial

Using the Jog dial, you may change the playback speed (playback rate specified in frames per second) in 17 steps.

Set the unit in Playback mode and turn the Jog dial. If you rotate it clockwise by one notch, the playback speed increases by one step. One notch counterclockwise rotation decreases the playback speed by one step. Press the B PLAY button to restore normal playback speed.

With the Shuttle dial

Using the Shuttle dial, you may play the pictures at a high speed or in slow motion.

Set the unit to Playback mode (PLAY button indicator lit) or Still-Picture mode (PAUSE button indicator lit) and rotate the Shuttle dial.

Playback will be performed in the direction and speed indicated by the direction and orientation of the Shuttle dial.

When you release the dial, the previous mode is restored.
