The progressive scan mode can be used when you want to look at a video, scene
by scene, free from field slippage (the “blurring” that normally occurs when you
pause a video). During playback, pause the video any time you like to view a
crystal clear still image in the display or on a connected TV screen. It is also
possible to transfer your favorite still pictures to a PC for image enhancement and
print out.
