Getting to Know the Camcorder

What is so special about recording on flash memory?

Your videos and photos are recorded in the built-in memory ( / / only) or

on a memory card (SD or SDHC card). Recording on flash memory means that there are no

moving parts in the recorder unit of the camcorder. To you, it means a camcorder that is

smaller, lighter and faster.

Other features of this camcorder

Whether you are using a camcorder for the first time or are very experienced, this

camcorder offers many easy-to-use functions. The following are just but a few examples of

the many functions that can enrich your shooting experience.

• Dual Shot ( 23): With Dual Shot ( mode), recording is as simple as pressing a

single button and using the zoom lever. The camcorder will take care of the rest!

• Special Scene recording programs ( 41): When recording in a variety of situations,

such as at the beach, the camcorder automatically selects the optimal settings for that

situation.

• Pre-recording function ( 46): The camcorder records for 3 seconds before you start

shooting, ensuring that those once-in-a-lifetime moments do not slip by.

• Video snapshot ( 44): Create a montage of scenes and even set it to music when you

play it back.
