•Optical zoom is disabled while shooting a movie. Digital zoom only is available while shooting a movie. If you want to use a particular optical zoom setting, make sure you select it before you press the shutter button to start movie recording (page 69).
•The effects of camera movement in an image become more pronounced when you shoot close up or a large zoom factor. Because of this, use of a tripod is recommended under these conditions.
•When the subject is outside the camera’s focus range, focusing is not possible and the image will be out of focus.
Using Short Movie
Short Movie shoots a movie that starts four seconds before the shutter button is pressed and ends four seconds after it is pressed.
•Since four seconds of action before the shutter button is pressed are recorded, Short Movie is a good way to make sure you don’t miss the action of kids or other active subjects.
•You can also use MOTION PRINT (page 174) to extract still images of Short Movie scenes.
