It is possible to record still pictures while recording motion pictures. (Simultaneous recording)

Remaining number of recordable pictures is displayed while still pictures are being recorded.

While recording motion pictures or during the PRE-REC operation, image quality is different from ordinary still pictures so that motion picture recording takes preference over still picture recording.

If simultaneous recording is used while recording a motion picture, the recordable time remaining will shorten. If the unit is turned off or the mode switch operated, the recordable time remaining may lengthen.
