The recordable time is an approximation. (Actual times depend on recording conditions and the type of SD card.)

Recording time depends on the subject.

The remaining recordable time shown on the LCD may not reduce regularly.

This camera cannot take motion pictures if you are using a MultiMediaCard.

The motion pictures cannot be recorded without audio.

The settings of auto focus/zoom/aperture values are fixed to what they are when recording starts (in the first frame).

Depending on the type of card you are using, the card access indication may appear for a while after shooting motion pictures. This is normal.

When you set the [PICT.MODE] to [30fpsVGA] or [30fps16:9], use cards that have a speed of 10 MB/second or better (shown on the card packaging) for best results.

Shooting may stop unexpectedly with some types of card or if you use a card whose memory has been fragmented by repeated shooting and erasure. Clean up the card with this unit beforehand for best results (P103).

Use only the genuine SD card with SD Logo.

When motion pictures recorded with this camera are played back on other equipment, the quality of pictures and sounds may be deteriorated or it may not be possible to play them back.

Motion pictures you have recorded at [30fpsVGA], [30fpsQVGA], [30fps16:9], and [10fpsVGA] can only be shown on compatible players.

In motion picture mode [i], you cannot use the direction detection function and the review function.
