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. The pictures can be
copied onto the cassette from a video movie camera, a
digital still camera or another VCR for any desired time that
you can preset.
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.
