DRecording Movies

Flicker, banding, or distortion may be visible in the display and in the final movie under fluorescent, mercury vapor, or sodium lamps or if the camera is panned horizontally or an object moves at high speed through frame (flicker and banding can be reduced by choosing a Flicker reduction option that matches the frequency of the local AC power supply as described on page 167, but note that the slowest shutter speed available is 1/100 s at 50 Hz, 1/60 s at 60 Hz; flicker reduction is

not available with slow-motion movies). Bright light sources may leave y after-images when the camera is panned. Jagged edges, color fringing, moiré, and bright spots may also appear. When recording movies, avoid pointing the camera at the sun or other strong light sources. Fail-

ure to observe this precaution could result in damage to the camera’s internal circuitry.
