Shooting Movies

The live image displayed on the camera’s LCD monitor can be recorded as a movie to the card. The movie recording format will be M V.

Cards that Can Record Movies

When shooting movies, use a large-capacity card with a fast writing/reading speed as shown in the table.

Compression Method

IPB

10 MB/sec. or faster

(p.233)

ALL-I (I-only)

30 MB/sec. or faster

If you use a slow-writing card when shooting movies, the movie may not be recorded properly. Also, if you play back a movie on a card with a slow reading speed, the movie may not play back properly.

If you want to shoot still photos while shooting a movie, you will need an even faster card.

To check the card’s reading/writing speed, refer to the card manufacturer’s Web site.
