9Motion Snapshot Mode

Choose Motion Snapshot mode to record brief movie vignettes with your photographs. Each time the shutter is released, the camera records a still image and about a second of movie foot- age. When the resulting “Motion Snapshot” is viewed on the camera, the movie will play back in slow motion over approxi- mately 2.5 s, followed by the still image; playback is accompa- nied by a background track about 10 s long.
