Photoshot Index Search System
Photoshot index signals are automatically recorded
when a Panasonic Digital Video Camera is used for
photo shot shooting. Photo shot images are searched
using these signals, and when such an image is
located, the image is played back as a still picture.
For example:
Searching for the 2nd photo shot image in the forward
direction.
1 Press SEARCH SELECT so that P ––” appears on
the VCR display.
2 Press INDEX/PHOTO 9 twice.
The image to be viewed
will be found.
For the reverse direction, press INDEX/PHOTO :.
Any of up to 20 images ahead on the tape can be
designated.
It may not be possible to search for a particular image
properly if photo shot images have been recorded
continuously.
At every press of the corresponding button, the tape
is fast-forwarded or rewound to the next still picture
recorded in the Photoshot Mode.
During playback, after reaching the still picture, the
still picture is played back continually together with
the sound (only for approx. 4 seconds).
To return to a specified scene
(zero stop function)
1 Press RESET to set the counter to 0:00.00.
2 After playback, press ZERO STOP in the stop mode.
The tape will be rewound or fast forwarded to
0:00.00 approximately.
During Time code display, this function will not
work.
Index Search System
It is easy to find the beginning of each recording
because a special index signal is recorded at the start
of each recorded segment on the tape.
For example:
Searching for the 2nd recorded segment in the forward
direction.

VCR display.
(This operation is performed while the VCR is in the
stop mode or normal playback mode.)
2 Press INDEX/PHOTO 9 twice.
Normal playback now commences.
To stop the operation at any time
Press (STOP).
After finding the specific recorded segment, playback
starts automatically.
For the reverse direction, press INDEX/PHOTO :.
Up to 20 index signals can be searched for in either
direction.
When the opposite INDEX/PHOTO is pressed, the
number shall be decreased until 1 is reached.
The figure on the display is reduced by 1 each time
an index signal is located.
The index search function can only work correctly if
the index signals are spaced at least 5 minutes apart.
Repeat the procedure if the index signal for the
specified number is not found.
