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.

•Using the camera’s built-in memory or certain types of memory cards can slow down processing speed. Whenever possible use an Ultra High-Speed Type memory card. Note, however, that not all operations can be guaranteed even if an Ultra High-Speed Type memory card is used. Certain movie quality settings can result in too much time being required to record data, which can result in breaks in the image and/or audio during playback. If this happens, the Y will turn yellow on the monitor screen.

NOTE

•Zoom operations are supported during movie recording (page 51). Zoom is disabled during high speed movie recording. To use zoom for high speed movie recording, perform the zoom operation before you press [0] (Movie) to start recording.

•Both Single SR Zoom (page 54) and Multi SR Zoom (page 55) 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 102) is performed during movie recording while “AF” (Auto Focus) or “Macro” is selected for the “Focus” setting.

•Face Detection is disabled during normal FHD and STD, and high speed movie recording. Face Detection is enabled when shooting movies with Premium Auto PRO (FHD and STD).

•The following functions do not support movie recording.

Blurred Background, All-In-Focus Macro, Triple Shot, Multi SR Zoom, some BEST SHOT scenes

•The A, S, and M recording modes are not supported when shooting a movie, or when using the “Prerecord (Movie)” and “For YouTube” BEST SHOT scenes. In these cases, the recording mode is always P (Program Auto).
