Since there's no chance of over-recording, you can begin
to shoot the instant you have a shooting opportunity.
Because the DVD Camcorder records on a DVD disc, you can enjoy
shooting videos without worrying about recording over previous
scenes that can occur when you use tape. You can start to shoot
a scene the instant you have an unexpected shooting opportunity,
even during play. And you can even enjoy a variety of still pictures,
because you can record still pictures like those taken with a digital
camera on SD memory cards as well as on DVD-RAM discs.
* Still pictures cannot be recorded on DVD-R discs; only on DVD-RAM discs or SD memory cards.
You can watch the video you have just taken immediately,
without rewinding.
There's no rewinding and fast-forwarding when you use the DVD
Camcorder. You can immediately replay the scene you have just shot
by pushing the joy-stick button. The Disc Navigation* function will
display a list of the scenes you have shot on the monitor. You can
instantly select the scene you want and watch it from the beginning.
If you have recorded on a DVD-R disc, you can watch your
recordings right away on a DVD player.
* When using 8cm DVD-RAM discs.
You can perform immediate editing using only your
DVD Camcorder – erasing and rearranging scenes,
for example.
Sometimes you come across scenes that you kept just in case you
might need them. Using the Disc Navigation function, you can play
your video as you erase unnecessary scenes or rearrange scenes
on the spot.
