Some suggestions for using Flashback
19
Let’s say your daughter is on the varsity basketball team. And right now, she’s
dribbling down the court.You’d like to capture her patented hook shot on video.
This is a job for Flashback.
Select Flashback with a recording period of 10 seconds and press the shutter
button as she sets off down court.The ball is passed back and forth, and is
kicked out of bounds. But don’t touch the Shutter button just yet to stop the
recording. Keep following the action.
An opponent puts the ball back into play, your daughter steals the pass.....she
sets....she shoots.....skyhook....she scores!
Now press the Shutter button to stop
the recording.The last ten seconds has been saved to video. Everything else—
all the unimportant activity—is discarded.
Using this method, you can record 7 or 8 of the best plays of the game (or more
if you use a user-supplied flash card).
Or let’s say your last name begins with “J” and your son is graduating from col-
lege.The Dean begins calling the “J’s.” Select 20 seconds from the Flashback
Period option in the Settings menu. Press the Shutter button to start recording.
Finally the big moment arrives, it’s your young man’s moment in the sun. After he
accepts his diploma and high fives the dean, press the Shutter button again and
you’ll have this unforgettable memory saved to video.
