Recording on the Memory Card
Three kinds of data can be recorded by selecting with the
[STILL/MPEG4/VOICE] Selector. When recording still pictures, select [STILL]
(Card PhotoShot), when recording moving pictures, select [MPEG4]
(MPEG4 Recording), when recording voice, select [VOICE]
(Voice Recorder Function).
If the [TAPE/CARD] Selector is set to [CARD], the Palmcorder is
automatically turned off when you leave it for about 5 minutes without
performing any PhotoShot recording.
When the [TAPE/CARD] Selector is set to [CARD], you cannot record to the
Tape.
ªCard PhotoShot
Still pictures can be recorded on the Memory Card from the Palmcorder lens
as well as from scenes that have already been recorded on a cassette.
The size of images that are recorded using this Palmcorder is approximately
1,080,000 pixels. Recording of images with a size that is larger than a million
pixels is called mega-pixel still-picture recording. Compared to images of
normal recording, images that are created by mega-pixel still-picture
recording can be printed more clearly.
