Some suggestions for using Flashback
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 the Flashback icon 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 let’s say your last name begins with “J” and your son is graduating from
college. The Dean begins calling the “J’s.” Select the Flashback icon and 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.
