Note
•
With DZ-MV580A, using S-VIDEO will enable you to
record clearer images.
•
Reduce the volume of external input sound heard from
the built-in speaker: The loud volume may cause noise
to enter the recorded image.
•
Still images can also be recorded on DVD-RAM disc or
card. See "Switching External Input Recording Method
(PHOTO Input)" on page 98 for details, and "Recording
Stills" on page 50 for how to record still images.
