Recording Video

You can use this camera to record videos (MPEG-4 format with voice). The length of the recorded video depends on the free space of the internal memory/SD card. Moreover, the image resolution, image quality and frame rate per second will also affect the length of the recorded video. The higher image resolution and quality, the less video you will be able to store.

To record video, perform the following steps:

1.Turn on the camera and toggle the Mode Dial to the Movie/Video Mode . If you want to set the date and time first, refer to page 17.

2.You will now see the Movie/Video Mode icon displayed on the LCD screen. If you would like to set the image resolution, quality and numbers of image per second on demand, press the Menu button (refer to page 35).

3.You can now view the scene you want to record on the LCD screen and press the Shutter button to start recording. The recorded video length icon will be shown on the upper right of the LCD screen. If these icons get in the way, press the Display button before recording.

4.Press the top of the 4-way scroll button to zoom in or the bottom to zoom out . The maximum zoom is 4X.
