Using a Memory Card
The camcorder can take, store and manage still images on 2 types of memory
cards: the MultiMediaCard (supplied with the camcorder) or an SD Memory Card
(commercially available). The MultiMediaCard is an ultra-small, ultra-light media
that can record still images. About the same size as a MultiMediaCard, the SD
(Secure Digital) Memory Card has the protect switch to protect your recording
from accidental erasure, and fits into the same slot as the MultiMediaCard.
You can do the following with a memory
card:
• Record still images (

• View still images 3 ways: Single

screen (

• Select the quality of images recorded on
the card (

• Protect important images against accidental erasure, print mark and erase still
images (

• Create interesting effects by combining images (

• Record a still image from a cassette (

• Copy multiple still images automatically to and from a cassette (

• Utilize memory card still images on a PC
You can use most of the camcorder’s functions when recording to a memory card,
such as the various recording programs (
