MOVIE RECORDING

1

Set the mode switch to the movie-recording position (1).

 

Before recording, the data-panel and monitor frame

 

counters show the maximum time in seconds that can be

 

recorded. The length of the movie clip depends on the

 

image size and frame rate, and the space available on the

 

memory card. The maximum recording time is 6 minutes

 

with 544x408 30fps movies or 15 minutes with other size

 

and frame-rate combinations; low light levels can shorten

 

this time. Image size and frame rate is selected with the

 

movie menu (p. 112). For more on movie recording, see

 

page 114.

 

Place the subject in the center of the live image and press

 

the shutter-release button partway down to set the focus.

 

Use the focus signal to confirm focus.
