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.

NOTE

Except for High Speed Movie, zoom operations are supported during movie recording (page 42). Zoom is disabled during high speed movie recording. To use optical zoom for high speed movie recording, perform the zoom operation before you press [0] (Movie) to start recording.

Both Single SR Zoom (page 45) and Multi SR Zoom (page 72) are disabled during movie recording.

The effects of camera movement in an image become more pronounced when you shoot close up or with a large zoom factor. Because of this, use of a tripod is recommended under these conditions.

Except for High Speed Movie, Continuous AF (page 90) is performed during movie recording while “Auto Focus” or “Macro” is selected for the “Focus” setting.

During High Speed Movie recording, focus is fixed at the position where it was when recording started. To focus an image, half-press the shutter button for Auto Focus or focus manually before you press [0] (Movie) to start recording.

Face Detection is disabled during movie (FHD, STD, high speed) recording.

The following BEST SHOT scenes are always shot using high speed movie. The current “» Quality” setting is ignored.

“Child High Speed Movie”, “Pet High Speed Movie”, “Sports High Speed Movie”
