Still Features (0.0)
The Sony DCR-HC38 does not offer the ability to capture still images. For those who can’t survive without a camcorder with a camera function, you can export a single frame from your NLE after capturing the footage. Unfortunately, since the video is interlaced, the image will be pretty bad lines. Our suggestion: find a camcorder with a still image feature, or better yet, get a real camera.

Still Performance (0.0)
Sorry, the Sony DCR-HC38 does not offer still photo shooting.

Still Resolution (0.0)
Again, we apologize. Try the next model up, the DCR-HC48, which offers still capture to MemoryStick Duo and PRO Duo in resolutions up to 1152 x 864.
