the shutter button.

This will shoot a Short Movie that for about four seconds, and then stop shooting automatically. The total length of the Short Movie will be eight seconds (four seconds before the shutter button was pressed plus four seconds after it was pressed). To stop movie recording, press the shutter button again.

IMPORTANT!

Movie data is continually recorded and stored in a buffer before you press the shutter button. Keep the camera pointed at the subject. Then at the right moment, press the shutter button. When you press the shutter button, the remaining recording time of part two of the Short Movie counts down on the monitor screen.

Using Past Movie

Past Movie is similar to a normal movie, except that it captures about five seconds of whatever happened in front of the lens before the shutter button was pressed to start shooting. Past Movie is a great way to make sure that you never just miss that special moment because you press the shutter button too late.
