Photo recording
You can record a still picture like a photograph for about seven seconds. This photo
recording is useful when you want to enjoy a picture such as a photograph or when you
print a picture using a video printer (not supplied). You can record about 510 pictures
on a 60-minute tape in SP mode.

Recording does not start yet. To change the still picture, release PHOTO, select still

If you press PHOTO on the Remote Commander when a still picture appears on the
