CREATING A SLIDE SHOW OR AN ANIMATION
You can create a slide show or an animation in which a series of still images are displayed, and then save
those images as a movie file (extension “.avi”).
[Slide Show]: Still images are displayed for several seconds each, one at a time.
[Animation]: Several still images are displayed per second. We recommend that you select a series of still
images that create the appearance of continuous movement. This mode is also suitable for playing back still
images that was recorded with Interval Shooting function (Only for D.S.C. equipped models).
1 Holding down the Shift key or the Ctrl key, select several still images.
2 Click [Movie].
The [Movie Settings] dialog box appears.
3 Select either [Slide Show] or [Animation], which ever is desired.
● For a slide show, set the length of the interval (in seconds).
● For an animation, set the number of displayed frames (images) per second.
4 Set the following items when necessary.
● [Image Size]: Select the size of the movie file.
● [Compressor]: Select the type of compressor.
● [Back Color]: This item is used if the aspect ratio of the images is not 4:3.
5 Click [OK].
The [Save As] dialog box appears.
6 Specify the location where you want to save the file, enter the file name, and then click
[Save].
● The file name can be changed.
The movie file is saved, and a confirmation message that asks if you want to play the movie now appears.
7 Click [Yes].
The movie file is played back.
NOTES:
● If you change the [Compressor] item, make sure that the playback system supports that type of compressor.
● Depending on the selected type for [Compressor], a movie file cannot be created.
● In some cases, the settings in the [Video Compression] dialog box are invalid.
