Voice Memo - Minolta DiMAGE F200 Instruction Manual

Voice memo

Voice memo allows a fifteen second audio track to be recorded with a still image. The function is acti-
vated in the custom 2 section of the multi-function recording menu (p. 56). When the function is
active, the microphone indicator is displayed on the data panel and LCD monitor. Voice memo must
be set 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 recorded time remaining. The
recording will automatically stop when the
set time has elapsed. To stop the recording
before the total time has elapsed, press
the central button of the controller (2).
When used with the continuous-advance
or bracketing drive modes (p. 38) the audio
file is attached to the last frame of the
series. The voice memo can be played
back in Quick View or the playback mode
(p. 82). Images with voice-memo audio
tracks have the audio-track indicator dis-
played with them.
Recording Tips
When making audio recordings, be careful not to touch or cover the microphone. The quality of
the recording is proportional to the subject to microphone distance. For best results, hold the
camera approximately 20cm (8in) from your mouth.
