Using a Memory Card
E
Connection to a computer or PictBridge compliant printer will not work when the
memory card contains more than 1800 images. For best performance, we
recommend not recording more than 100 images on the memory card when
you plan to connect the camcorder to a computer or printer.
When you are using a Macintosh computer, you may not be able to download
image with ImageBrowser or with OS standard software when the memory card
contains more than 1000 images. In such case, use a card reader for
downloading the images.

When you press the PHOTO button fully before and the focusing frame turn
green, it may take up to 2* seconds until focus is adjusted and the still image
can be recorded to the memory card.
* Up to 4 seconds in the Night recording program.
If the subject is not suitable for autofocus, the focusing frame turns yellow and
locks the focus. Adjust the focus manually with the joystick.
When powered by a battery pack, the camcorder shuts off to save power if left
without any operation for 5 minutes. Approximately 30 seconds before the
camcorder shuts off the message “ AUTO POWER OFF” will appear. To
continue recording, turn the switch to and then back to CAMERA.
