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.
1 Press the MENU button, use the f/e/
d/c/A buttons to choose “PHOTO
Input” on the “Record Functions Setup”
menu screen, and then press the A button.
2 Select the desired option and then press the
A button.
3 Press the MENU button to end the setting.
Note:
The PHOTO Input setting can be confirmed using the
on-screen information.
The PHOTO Input setting will be stored in memory
even when the DVD video camera/recorder is turned
off.
Refer to “Recording (Dubbing) Images”, p. 109 to see
how to connect the DVD video camera/recorder to
another device.
