Using the Camera to Record and Analyze a Golf Swing
Your camera can be used in various ways to analyze a golf swing and moment of
impact.
Lines displayed in a movie image shot from behind the golfer can be used to analyze
the swing.
1.
Press [p] (PLAY), and then use [4] and [6] to display the movie of
the back-shot swing you want to analyze.
2.
Press [SET] to start playback. When playback reaches the image of the
golfer addressing the ball, press [SET] again to pause playback.
• While playback is in progress, you can also use [4] (fast reverse) and [6] (fast
forward) to navigate the scene you want.
• Pressing [0] (Movie) while playback is in progress toggles the playback speed
between slow motion and normal speed.
3.
Press [8] (DISP) to display diagonal lines.
• This displays angle of inclination values to
appear on the monitor screen.
4.
Press [MODE].
5.
Use [8], [2], [4], and [6] to align the
reference point (the point where the red line
and the blue line intersect) with the ball.
Next, rotate the zoom controller to change
the angle of the red line so it is aligned with
the golfer’s hips.
• Changing the angle of the red line will cause the
displayed angle of inclination (yellow part) and
the red angle value in the upper left corner to
change accordingly.
6.
Press [SET].
