Selecting the recording mode

The PDC-800 has five recording modes:
Display
Recording panel

Still Picture
Still Picture

Audio
Because the most popular recording mode is Still Picture, most of the
instructions in this guide refer to that mode. See the PDC-800 Operation
Manual for information about the other recording modes.
To choose the recording mode, slide the camera main switch to REC. Then
press the REC MODE/ERASE button until the symbol for the desired mode
appears on the display panel.
Note: You cannot change the recording mode when a live image is visible on
the LCD monitor. Press the LIVE button to turn off the LCD display, press
the REC MODE/ERASE button to choose the desired mode, then press the
LIVE button again to display a live image.
