What you can do with your DVD Handycam
Your DVD Handycam records images on an 8cm DVD
*
disc, which makes it easier to record
and view images.
You can enjoy your DVD Handycam in ways that are different from those of other media.
A VISUAL INDEX screen shows the disc
contents at a glance
Movies and still images are recorded on the same
disc. You can find the desired scene quickly using
this index (p.
27, 31
).
Playing back the recorded disc on
other DVD devices
You can play back a disc on other DVD players or
on the DVD drive of a computer if you finalize**
it. You can also create a DVD menu that helps you
to find the desired image quickly, from a list of
thumbnails (p.
28, 40
).
A Slide show plays back still images,
one after another
You can play back still images one after another
using the Slide show function. You can also enjoy
the Slide show on a DVD player if you finalize**
the disc (p. 28, 40).
Editing a disc using the supplied
software
You can create your own DVD discs adding special
effects or music to images using the Picture Package
software supplied with your camcorder (p. 75).

DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) is a high capacity optical disc which enables you to record images. In this
manual, an 8cm DVD disc is described as a “disc.”
**Finalizing means converting a recorded disc so that it can be played back on other DVD playback
equipment (p. 28, 40). After finalizing a disc, you may not be able to record on it again on your DVD
Handycam, depending on the disc type and the recording format (p. 13).
