Taking Photos

You can take photos when the camcorder is in 

 mode or you can 

capture a photo from a clip when the camcorder is in 

 mode. 

Photos are saved onto the SD card. In 

 mode, photo size is 

1920x1080*. In 

 mode, photo size depends on the resolution 

setting of the clip that the photo is captured from. If the clip is 1920x1080 
or 1440x1080, the photo size is 1920x1080. If the clip is 1280x720, the 
photo size is 1280x720.

* At this size, the camcorder can save approximately 670 photos on a 1 GB SD 

card.

Taking Photos in CAMERA Mode

You can take a photo while the camcorder is recording a clip or is in 
record pause mode. If a custom picture file is selected in advance, it will 
be recorded with the photo (0 119). To take a photo, set an assignable 
button to [Photo] first or use the wireless controller.

• This step is not necessary if you are using the wireless controller.

2 Press the assignable button to take a photo.

• Alternatively, press the PHOTO button on the wireless controller.

• The b icon and the number of available photos appear on the 

upper right portion of the screen.

• If a custom picture file is selected, it will be recorded with the photo.

• The SD card access indicator will flash as the photo is being 

recorded.

NOTES

• Photos cannot be recorded when the [Gamma] setting in the custom 

picture file is set to [Hlt.Pri.].
