sound is erased.
 (If you want to preserve the original sound, use 
the [12bit] Mode when recording.)

ªCard PhotoShot
Still pictures can be recorded on the Memory Card from the 
Palmcorder lens as well as from scenes that have already been 
recorded on a cassette.
The size of images that are recorded using this Palmcorder is 
approximately 1,230,000 pixels. Recording of images with a size 
that is larger than a million pixels is called mega-pixel still-picture 
recording. Compared to images of normal recording, images that are 
created by mega-pixel still-picture recording can be printed out more 
clearly.
Recording from the Palmcorder Lens (CAMERA Mode)
