3Setting the Movie-recording Size

Frame rate (fps: frames per second)

8/6 : For areas where the TV format is NTSC (North America, Japan, Korea, Mexico, etc.).

7/5 : For areas where the TV format is PAL (Europe, Russia, China, Australia, etc.).

4: Mainly for motion pictures.

Movie recording method and compression method

JMJPG

: When shooting in H, Motion JPEG is used to

 

compress the movie recorded. Each frame is

 

compressed separately and recorded without

 

compression between frames. The

 

compression rate is therefore low. Since the

 

image size is large, the file size will also be

 

large.

XIPB

: Efficiently compresses multiple frames at a

 

time for recording. Since the file size will be

 

smaller than with ALL-I, you can shoot longer.

WALL-I (I-only)

: Compresses one frame at a time for recording.

 

Although the file size will be bigger than with

 

IPB, the movie will be more suited for editing.

Still photo shooting (p.31) is not possible if H, I, or A:8/7is set.

While I, A:8/7, A:6/5movie-recording sizes all record at Full HD resolution, the recorded image may look slightly different between each setting.

The 8/7and 6/5frame rate will switch automatically in accordance with the [53: Video system] setting.

The color sampling will be recorded as follows: H: YCbCr 4:2:2 (8 bit),

IABC: YCbCr 4:2:0 (8 bit). The color matrix will be recorded as

follows: HC: Rec. ITU-R BT.601, IAB: Rec. ITU-R BT.709.
