Voice Memo - Minolta Dimage X20 Instruction Manual

VOICE MEMO

Voice memo allows an audio track up to fifteen second to be recorded with a still
image. The function is activated in the section 1 of the recording-mode menu (p.
53). When the function is active, the microphone indicator is displayed on the LCD
before taking a picture. It will remain in
effect until reset.
After an image is captured, a screen
will appear indicating the audio
recording has started. A bar graph
(1) will display the amount of
recording time remaining. During
the recording, the indicator lamp
glows. To stop the recording, press
the shutter-release button or the
center button of the controller (2).
The recording will automatically
stop when the fifteen-second limit
has elapsed.
Voice memo is attached to the last
image of a continuous-advance
series (p. 40). When played back,
images with voice-memo audio tracks
have a note icon displayed with them
(p. 62).
Camera Notes
