Album Function
The album function lets you collect desired scenes (both
moving and still pictures) and create the equivalent of a
photo album, but on video cassette.
• Connect a digital still camera, a video movie camera or
another external source to the Video Input socket/S-Video
Input socket and Audio Input sockets on the front panel of
this VCR.
1)
Press the [STILL ALBUM]
(6)
on the remote control to put the
VCR in the recording pause
mode.
• The VCR automatically selects the AV Input (external
input) [A3] and then switches over to the recording
pause mode. The figure for the preset recording time
(seconds) appears on the VCR display. The initial
setting is [05] (5 seconds).
2)
Press the [INDEX]
(31)
L
or [INDEX]
(31)
K
to
change the recording time. You can set any time
between [3] and [20] seconds.
3)
Start playback on the source unit to search for the point
from which you want to copy onto this VCR.
4)
When that point is reached,
press the [STILL ALBUM]
(6)
on the remote control again to
start recording.
The VCR records the picture (and sound) for 5 seconds
and then automatically switches over to the recording
pause mode.
5)
When you have recorded all desired scenes, press the
[Stop]
(9)
to finish recording.
Hints:
• If you connect a digital still camera, use a camera equipped with
the video output socket. Use the cable supplied with the still
camera to connect it. For details, also read the operating
instructions of the equipment to be connected.
• If you leave the VCR in the recording pause mode for more than
5 minutes, the VCR automatically switches over to the stop mode
to protect the video heads. In this case, press the [STILL ALBUM]
(6)
again to put the VCR in the recording pause mode again.
• If you want to add background music or narration to the scenes
recorded with the album function, perform Audio Dubbing as
explained on page 24.
• Depending on the output system of the digital still camera, the
pictures may not be recorded correctly.
• If you dub still pictures from a conventional analogue video movie
camera or VCR, some picture distortion may occur in the recorded
picture.
