FRecording Movies

3Cautions

•Vertical or horizontal streaks may appear in movies containing very bright subjects. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

•Recording movies for a long time or using the camera at high ambient temperatures may increase the cam- era temperature. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

•Sounds made by the camera may be recorded.

•The ELCD MODE option in the setup menu is fixed at 30 fps in movie mode.

Avoiding Blurred Pictures

If the subject is poorly lit, blurring caused by camera shake can be reduced using the LDUAL IS MODE option in the setup menu (P93).

Sensitivity is raised when dual IS is in effect. Note that blurring may still occur depending on the scene. We recommend that you turn dual IS off when using a tripod.

Zooming While Recording a Movie

The zoom can be used while recording a movie.

In the setup menu, select 1DIGITAL or 2OPTICAL (P93).

1DIGITAL: Image quality may deteriorate when the zoom is used.

2OPTICAL: The sound of the camera zooming may be heard when playing movie.

Before recording, select a frame size using the WMOVIE MODE option in the shooting menu.
