Recording a Still Picture on a Card
(Photoshot)

To record still pictures clearly
• When zooming in on the subject with a
magnification of 4× to 10× or higher, it is difficult
to reduce the slight hand shaking from holding
the Camcorder. We recommend decreasing the
zoom magnification and approaching the subject
when recording.
• When recording still pictures, hold the
Camcorder firmly with your hands and keep your
arms stationary at your side so as not to shake
the Camcorder.
• You can record stable pictures without hand
shaking by using a tripod and the Remote
Control. (PV-GS59 Only)
