.Recording Precautions

The camera also records audio. Note the following points

Microphone

when shooting a movie.

 

– Take care that the microphone is not blocked by your

 

fingers, etc.

 

Good 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 “HD/STD” is selected as the movie mode, turning optical zoom on or off also turns audio recording on or off. Audio recording is turned off while optical zoom is turned on, and turned on while optical zoom is turned off. The optical zoom on/off operation is performed using the control panel. Note that lens operation noise may be picked up in audio recordings.

Audio recording cannot be performed while “HS” is selected as the movie mode.
