Show Remaining Videotime [ Don’t, hh:mm:ss, KB/s, both ] < Video Parameters
Displays a positionable OSD element to show the video bit-rate, and the remaining video recording-time, on your SD card,…
•Don't - No display of remaining recording time and/or video data-rate.
•hh:mm:ss - Display a clock of remaining video-recording time left.
•KB/s - Display video recording bandwidth (data-rate) in Kilobytes per Second.
•Both - Display remaining video-recording time in both hours/mins/secs, and video data-rate in Kilobytes per Second.
•Refresh Rate (~sec) < Video Parameters < Main Menu
Due to the nature of video's variable bit-rate and compression methods, subject dependent, the "Show Remaining Videotime" has to be updated regularly by re-polling the card-space and the bit-rate to calculate a fairly accurate time-remaining estimate. Choose, in seconds, how often that you want this Video-Recording time-remaining to be updated. Shorter periods of time are less accurate from each on-screen update to the next.
RAW Parameters < Main Menu
Save Raw Enable [•] / Disable [ ]
Enables the saving of RAW files. Enabling RAW does not disable JPEG, both are saved. Also required for saving DNG.
Exceptions < Raw parameters < Main Menu
• Disable @ Video Record? | Enable [•] / Disable [ ] |
Some cameras, the S-Series in particular, have a dedicated "Video Record" button where you can engage that and also shoot individual still-frames during video recording. It was found that RAW file-saving can interfere in this process. Turning this option on will ensure that you don't miss a shot or your video.
• Disable RAW @ Sports | Enable [•] / Disable [ ] |
Disable RAW saving when the Mode-Dial is turned to Sports Mode. This ensures that fast action sequences won't be missed due to RAW file-saving time, when forgetting to disengage the RAW feature.
Disable RAW file-saving when using burst mode. Again, a handy override for when RAW is not needed during fast burst-sequence shots (RAW enabled would certainly increase time between shots)
Disable RAW file-saving when using your camera's Custom Timer mode (similar to the safety feature for the burst mode).
