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.

The camera also records audio. Note the following points when shooting a movie.

Take care that the microphone is not blocked by your fingers, etc.

Good audio recording results are not possible when the camera is too far away from what you are trying to

record.

Microphone

Shooting a very bright subject can cause a vertical band or a pink cast on the monitor screen image. This does not indicate malfunction.

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.

Only digital zoom can be used for zooming during movie recording. Since optical zoom is not possible while recording a movie, zoom as required before pressing [0] (Movie) to start 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 movie icon 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

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.
