53
On a 512 MB memory card
* This size is only available for recording
simultaneously on the tape and memory card
(

playback picture (
54).
Default value
* The number displayed on the right corner
indicates the approximate number of images
that can be recorded with the current quality/
size setting.
NOTES
Depending on the number of images on the
memory card (Windows: more than 1,800
images; Macintosh: more than 1,000 images),
you may not be able to download images to a
computer. Try using a card reader.
Connection to a PictBridge compatible printer
will not work when the memory card contains
more than 1,800 images. For best performance,
we recommend keeping the number of images
on the memory card under 100.
When printing still images, use the following
guidelines as a reference for selecting the print
size.
Capturing a Still Image while Recording
Movies
You can record still images on the
memory card even while the camcorder is
set to
mode. You can also
capture simultaneously, as a still image
on the memory card, the same picture
you are recording as video on the tape.
The size and quality of the still image can
be selected.
POINTS TO CHECK
Select the size and quality of the still
image in record pause mode before you
start recording.
