Using the Full
Range of Features
• While the camera records the still, you cannot use the camera functions
(controls, POWER switch/zoom lever, etc., do not respond until recording is
complete). This applies even when you haven’t loaded a cassette.
• The wireless controller’s PHOTO button has no half-way setting. Press the
button fully and the camera immediately takes the “photo”.
• For even greater versatility attach a Canon Speedlite for flash photography
(available as optional accessories, see p. 48), when taking still pictures from
record pause mode.
• Only take “photos” where it is bright enough to see the image in the display.
• If you want to use an effect, make sure you set it before you take your picture
(you cannot use the fade trigger while taking a still picture).
• Depending on the subject (fast moving subject, for example), the picture may
be blurred.
