Movies

●● The camera may become warm when shooting movies repeatedly over an extended period. This does not indicate damage.

●● Before shooting a movie, lower the flash with your finger. Be careful not to touch the microphone (1) when shooting a movie. Leaving the flash raised, or blocking the microphone may prevent audio from being recorded or may cause the recording to sound muffled.

(1)

●● Avoid touching camera controls other than the movie button when shooting movies, because sounds made by the camera will be recorded.

●● Once movie recording begins, the image display area changes and subjects are enlarged to allow for correction of significant camera shake. To shoot subjects at the same size shown before shooting, adjust the image stabilization setting (=90).

●● Audio is recorded in stereo.

●● If you prefer not to record sound, choose MENU (=30) ► [] tab ► [Sound rec.] ► [Disable].
