Shooting with BEST SHOT

With BEST SHOT (page 68), you can select the sample scene that matches the type of movie you are trying to shoot and the camera will change its setup accordingly, for beautiful movies every time. Selecting the “Natural Green” BEST SHOT scene, for example, will shot images with vivid green trees and grass.

Minimizing the Effects of Camera Movement during Movie Recording

You can configure the camera to minimize the effects of camera movement during HD and STD movie recording (page 95). Note, however, that this does not prevent image blur due to subject movement.

Audio

Your camera has built-in microphones that can be used to record audio (stereo) during movie recording.

.Recording Precautions

The camera also records audio. Note the following points when

Microphones

shooting a movie.

 

– Take care that the microphones are not blocked by your

 

fingers, etc.

 

– Good audio recording results are not possible when the

 

camera is too far away from what you are trying to record.

 

–Operating camera buttons while shooting can cause button noise to be picked up in the audio.

•When shooting with the “HS” movie mode at a frame rate

setting of “30-120 fps” or “30-240 fps”, audio is recorded only while the camera is shooting at 30 fps. Audio is not recorded at any other frame rates.

IMPORTANT!

•Spending a long time using movie recording will cause the camera to become slightly warm to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

•Shooting movies for long periods in areas where temperature is relatively high can cause digital noise (dots of light) to appear in the movie image. A rise in the camera’s internal temperature also may force movie recording to stop automatically. If this happens, stop recording and allow the camera to cool down, which should cause normal operation to resume.

•Shooting a movie using the camera’s built-in memory will cause movie frames to be dropped. Always use a high speed memory card (not built-in memory) for movie recording.

•Use of certain types of memory cards slows down data transfer and increases the time it takes to record movie data, which can result in movie frames being dropped. The Y indicator on the monitor screen turns yellow to indicate that frames are being dropped. In order to avoid problems such as these, use of an Ultra High Speed Type SD memory card is recommended. Note, however that CASIO makes no guarantees about the operation of any Ultra High Speed Type SD memory card used with this camera.
