Shooting Mode

The following movie modes are available.

The recording time will vary according to the capacity of the memory card you use (p. 198).

Standard

You can select the recording pixels and record until the memory card is full (when a super high-speed memory card is used, such as the recommended SDC-512MSH). The digital zoom can be used while shooting in this mode. (p. 57)

•Maximum Size: 4 GB*

Compact

Since there are few recording pixels and also the data size is small, this mode is convenient for sending movies as e-mail attachments or when the memory card capacity is low.

•Maximum Clip Length: 3 minutes

*Even if the clip size has not reached 4 GB, recording will stop at the moment the clip length reaches 1 hour. Depending on the volume and data writing speed of the memory card, recording may stop before reaching 1 hour or before the recorded data volume has reached 4 GB.
