Playback Effects - Sharp ViewCam VL-WD255U Operation Manual

Playback Effects

Playback effects can be used to create an
interesting scene transition between a still
image and the following image during play-
back in TAPE-VCR mode.
Type of Playback Effects
OVERLAP: A still image fades out as the next
image fades in, replacing the previous image.
The two scenes momentarily dissolve.
WIPE: A still image is replaced with the next
image first appearing in the middle of the
screen and gradually expanding to fill the
screen.
Preparation
Plan the scene transition, and record still
images with the still recording function (see
page 39).
Notes:
• Playback effects can also be used to provide a
transition from a still image to a moving image.
• Record images for 6 seconds or longer. An
image recorded for less than 6 seconds may not
dissolve properly.
