recording mode
This feature is useful for movies you intend
to import to your computer to produce still
images.
You can record pictures with less blurring
than recording in the normal mode,
producing pictures suitable for analyzing
high-speed action such as sports. To enjoy as
a movie, it is better to record the picture in the
normal mode, since the image is recorded
only every 1/30 of a second in the progressive
recording mode.

Note on the progressive recording mode
In a normal TV broadcast, the screen is divided into 2
finer fields and these are displayed in turn, every 1/60
of a second. Thus, the actual picture displayed in an
instant covers only half of the apparent picture area. In
progressive recording, the picture is fully displayed
with all the pixels. A picture recorded in this mode
appears clearer, but a moving subject may appear
awkward.
