Recording a still image on a tape – Tape Photo recording
You can record a still image onto a tape. This mode is useful when you want to print an
image using a video printer (optional). You can record about 510 images on a 60-minute
cassette.
Besides the operation described here, your camcorder can record still images on a
“Memory Stick” (DCR-IP7BT only) (p. 118).
(1) In standby mode, keep pressing PHOTO lightly until a still image appears. The
CAPTURE indicator appears. Recording does not start yet.
To change the still image, release PHOTO, select a still image again, and then
press and hold PHOTO lightly.
(2) Press PHOTO deeper.
The still image on the screen is recorded for about 7 seconds. The sound
during those 7 seconds is also recorded.
The still image is displayed on the screen until the recording is completed.
