ª To record still pictures clearly
≥When zooming in on the subject with a
magnification of 4k or higher, it is difficult to
reduce the slight shaking from holding the
Camcorder by hand. We recommend
decreasing the zoom magnification and
approaching the subject when recording.
≥When recording still pictures, hold the
Camcorder firmly with your hands and keep
your arms stationary at your side so as not to
shake the Camcorder.
≥You can record stable pictures without shaking
by using a tripod and the remote control.
≥For the number of still pictures to be recorded
on a card, refer to
-86-.
≥The moving picture and sound cannot be
recorded.
≥While data are recorded on a card, do not
operate the mode dial.
≥When the access lamp is lit, do not insert or
remove a card.

data recorded on this Camcorder.
≥If set [PICT.QUALITY] >> [ ], mosaic-pattern
noise may appear on a playback image
depending on the picture content.
