Quality of Card Photoshot Pictures
You can choose among 3 picture quality modes for
the Card Photoshot Function.
Maximum recordable number of pictures on the
supplied 8 MB MultiMediaCard
FINE: Approx. 50 pictures
NORMAL: Approx. 100 pictures
ECONOMY: Approx. 200 pictures
When recording in more than one mode (FINE,
NORMAL, ECONOMY) on the same
MultiMediaCard, the maximum recordable
number differs from the numbers indicated above.
The maximum recordable numbers are
approximations. When recording intricate pictures
with fine details, the number of recordable still
pictures on the MultiMediaCard decreases due to
their large data volume.
To be able to record an even larger number of still
pictures, we recommend that you use the 16 MB
MultiMediaCard VW-MMC16E (optional).

Remarks, etc.
Electromagnetic waves, static electricity, malfunction
of the Movie Camera or of the MultiMediaCard itself
could erase the data recorded on it. To prevent the
loss of picture data, we recommend that you make a
backup copy on a cassette (p. 76) or on the computer
(p. 78).
If you use the Card Photoshot Function during
recording, the Movie Camera is automatically put in
the Recording Pause Mode.
Before pressing the [PHOTO SHOT] Button, we
recommend that you press the [ /STILL] Button to
check the picture.
