With the “30-210 fps” high-speed movie, the frame rate is always fixed at 30 fps when you first begin recording. You can switch between 30 fps and 210 fps only while recording is in progress. Use [4]

and [6] or press [SET] to switch speeds.

NOTE

When recording certain types of movies, the image that appears on the monitor screen may be smaller than normal. When recording a high-speed movie, there are black bands along the top, bottom, left, and right of the screen.

When recording a high-speed movie, light source flicker can cause horizontal bands to appear in the image. This does not indicate malfunction of the camera.

During High-speed Movie recording, Auto Focus and exposure remain fixed at the levels they were when you initially started recording. Zoom and monitor screen content switching are all disabled.

To focus the image, half-press the shutter button for Auto Focus or focus manually before starting the High-speed Movie recording operation.

When recording a high-speed movie, you can record movies with the A (Aperture Priority) mode, S (Shutter Speed Priority) mode, or M (Manual Exposure) mode (page 29). Note, however, that you cannot set a shutter speed that is slower than the High-speed Movie frame rate. The A, S, and M mode settings are not supported when recording with “Prerecord (Movie)”.
