Movie displaye

Geared for movies, the Live View image will closely reflect the brightness level of the image you capture. The shooting coverage will also correspond to the aspect ratio of the movie-recording size which was set. (The semi-transparent mask on the top, bottom, left, and right of the screen will not be included in the recorded movie.) Even when [Movie display] is set, you can take still photos by pressing the shutter button completely (p.136).

When [Screen settings] is set to [Stills display] or [Exposure simulation], movie shooting with shutter-priority AE (p.129), aperture- priority AE (p.130), or manual exposure (p.131) is not possible. Movie shooting with auto exposure takes effect instead, regardless of the current shooting mode.
