Panasonic d-snap sv-av25 manual

At only 6. The only real drawback of its light weight is that you may have a hard time pressing the controls without shaking the camera. They sit behind the LCD on the left panel, rotated 45 degrees toward the camera back. The rest of the SV-AV's controls are laid out similarly to a typical camcorder's.

The screen swivels more than degrees, so you can aim it downward for overhead crowd shots and forward for self-portraits. The D-Snap's menus are easy to use.

That's partly because there aren't that many choices, but the system is also clearly labeled, with high-resolution graphics and subtle color coding that aids navigation. In general, the controls are logically placed and intelligently configured. We especially like the multifunction buttons: one toggles between recording and playback; another cycles through the MPEG-2, MPEG-4, and still-photo modes.

During playback, you adjust the volume with the zoom lever. Opting for an ultracompact device too often means sacrificing advanced features. In addition to a 10X zoom and a large LCD, this mini camcorder offers both automatic and manual focus, exposure, and white balance.

For best visibility, you can adjust the monitor's brightness and color level. Stereo Earphones: Designed to fit snugly inside the user's ears, the supplied ear buds are attached to a soft, flexible cord that has unequal lengths for each side.

The right cord is 15" longer than the left, as it is meant to pass behind the user's head, and the cable should hang down the user's left side. The cable is 20" from the left ear bud , and is terminated with a gold-plated right-angle stereo mini-plug.

Power Requirements: You can power the unit with the supplied Lithium Ion rechargeable battery, or the supplied AC adapter. It takes approximately 2 hours and 25 minutes to recharge a fully discharged battery under normal ambient temperatures. In addition, a built-in battery sustains the operation of the unit's clock. Digital Camera Features. Optics: The device has an F4. The optimum distance for recording is 1. There is no optical zoom. Built-in Flash: You can take pictures in low-light situations, without having to carry an external flash.

The available range of the flash is approximately 2 to 3. Note: Standard illumination is lux; minimum illumination is 60 lux. Backlight Compensation: To prevent a recording subject from appearing too dark in a backlight setting, you can engage the backlight compensation mode. Depending upon the scene or lighting conditions, the automatic white balance adjustment may not be able to bring out natural colors.

In such cases, the white balance can be manually adjusted. Viewing Still Images: Once you have recorded still images, you can view them in a number of ways. When the unit is in picture playback mode, the images appear in an index screen six at time.

You can play back one image at a time manually, or one image every three seconds in a slideshow fashion. You can protect important images to avoid accidentally erasing them.

Once an image is protected, it cannot be erased during a single-frame erase or all-frame erase function. Note: Protected images can be erased when the card is reformatted. You can also take the loaded SD Memory Card to a photo lab where images are downloaded and printed. Printing data, such as the number of images to be printed, can be written to the Memory Card. Clips can be saved to your computer to add effects, email, or post online.

Viewing Moving Images: Similar to still image playback, the moving image files are initially displayed in an index format of 6 files. After choosing which file to play back, you can pause playback, skip to the beginning of the current file, skip to the beginning of the next file, or fast forward and rewind through a file.

You can also repeat the current file or repeat all files. Display Sizes: During moving image playback, you can choose a Full or Normal display size. Digital Audio Features. Voice data is recorded to the memory card through the built-in microphone monaural. WMA files are not compatible. Once recorded, the voice files are displayed in the form of a list. During playback, you can pause the playback, skip to the beginning of the current file, skip to the beginning of the next file, or search fast forward or fast backward through a file at 10x normal speed.

While the Voice files are being recorded and played back, the LCD monitor goes dark, reappearing after the file is completed. The player features a stereo headphone mini-jack output so you can listen to the music using the supplied headphones. Warranty Information.
