Using Prerecord Movie (Prerecord (Movie))

With this feature, the camera pre-records up to five seconds of whatever is happening in front of the lens in a buffer that is continually updated. Pressing [0] saves the pre-recorded action (buffer contents) followed by real-time recording. Real-time recording continues until you stop it. Prerecord Movie can be used when shooting a standard (STD) movie, a high-definition (HD) movie, or a high speed (HS) movie.

•When using Prerecord Movie in combination with high speed movie, the buffer will store two seconds of pre-recording instead of the usual five.
