Easy big-screen TV viewing and recording to a DVD In addition to enjoying playback on the built-in 2.2-inch LCD monitor screen, you can also connect to your household TV for big-screen viewing with family and friends. Simple connection to a DVD/VCR deck means you can create an entire library or original movies or share movies with your friends. High Quality Movie makes movie recording more fun! A powerful movie mode lets you record VGA size (640 x 480 pixels), 30-frame-per-second MPEG-4 movies. Images are processed to ensure longer, high quality movies. A noise filter dramatically eliminates white speck noise from playback. Past Movie Pressing the shutter button records a movie, starting from the point five seconds before you pressed the shutter button. This mode helps you capture your baby's first steps, or an unforgettable look of surprise on a loved-one's face, even if you are a bit late with the shutter button. Short Movie Pressing the shutter button records an eight-second movie, so you can collect snippets of only the most important action whenever you want. You can specify the relative length of the past part and the future part of a short movie, for a total of eight seconds. Quick Interface Direct, mode-less recording of images and movies The slanted pyramid configuration of the top of the camera allows easy operation of the shutter button. Direct mode-less operation means you simply press the shutter button to record a snapshot or the movie button to record a movie. Recording and playback also is performed using direct button operations, which means that you are just a key touch away from the recording or playback function you need. Snapshot in Movie You can record a snapshot while movie recording is in progress by simply pressing the shutter button. You don't even need to change modes. The camera automatically returns to movie recording after recording the snapshot. Movie image and audio is interrupted for a few seconds when the snapshot is recorded. Silent Movie Monochrome color and slightly faster speed produce an effect that is just like old time silent movies. Pan Focus Pan Focus comes in handy when recording fast moving action or subjects that are normally difficult to focus. Transfer images to a computer
