Notes for Movie crop

Use a tripod to prevent hand-held camera shake.

The Movie crop image cannot be magnified for focusing.

Even if the AF mode has been set to [Quick mode], it will switch automatically to [Live mode] during movie shooting. Also, in [Live mode], the AF point is displayed larger than with other recording sizes. Noise and dots of light may be more noticeable than in other recording sizes.

Focusing may be difficult if the AF point covers both a near and far subject.

Still photos cannot be taken.
