Recording on the Memory Card
Still pictures can be recorded on a Card from the Camera/Recorder lens as 
well as from scenes that have already been recorded on a cassette.
The size of images that are recorded using this Camera/Recorder is 
approximately 1,680,000 pixels, and recording of images with a size that is 
larger than a million pixels is called mega-pixel still-picture recording. 
Compared to images of normal recording, images that are created by 
mega-pixel still-picture recording can be printed out clearer.
