Special Recording Modes
Recording
The camcorder features 4 special recording modes.
Interval recording ([Interval Rec]): The camcorder will automatically record
a pre-defined number of frames at a pre-defined interval. This mode is
suitable for recording subjects with little movement, such as natural
surroundings or plants.
Frame recording ([Frame Rec]): The camcorder will record a pre-defined
number of frames every time you press the START/STOP button. This
mode is suitable for recording stop motion animation.
Slow & fast motion recording ([Slow & Fast Motion]): This mode allows
you to change the shooting frame rate to achieve a slow motion or fast
motion effect during playback.
Pre-recording ([Pre Rec]): The camcorder will start recording
approximately 3 seconds before you press the START/STOP button. This
is especially useful when it is difficult to predict when to start recording.
