[QVGA] is fixed when recording to the built-in memory.

Depending on the motion picture recording environment, static electricity or electromagnetic waves may cause the screen to go black momentarily or noise to be recorded.

When recording motion pictures, it is recommended to use a sufficiently charged battery or an AC adaptor (optional) and DC coupler (optional).

When recording motion pictures using an AC adaptor, if you unplug the AC adaptor or a power outage occurs, power to the camera is cut, and the motion picture in progress is no longer recorded.

If you attempt to play motion pictures recorded with the camera on other devices, playback may not be possible, or the picture or sound quality may be poor. Additionally, incorrect recording information may be indicated.

[Sensitivity]

Set ISO Sensitivity (sensitivity to lighting) manually.

We recommend higher settings to take clear pictures in darker locations.

Settings: [ ] (Intelligent ISO) / [100] / [200] / [400] / [800] / [1600]
