Voice Memos

Recording Voice Memos

Voice memos up to sixty seconds long can be added to photographs using the built-in microphone. In shooting mode, a voice memo can be added to the most recent photograph. In playback mode, voice memos can be added to photographs displayed in single-image playback or selected in the thumbnail list.

1 Ready the camera for recording. Shooting Mode

At default settings, voice memos can not be recorded in shooting mode. To enable automatic or manual voice memo recording, select the appro- priate option for Voice memo in the camera setup menu ( 209). Voice memos can only be added to the last photograph taken.

Playback Mode

Display the photograph to which the memo is to be added (single-image playback) or highlight the photograph in the thumbnail list (thumbnail playback). Only one voice memo can be recorded per image; additional voice memos can not be recorded for images already marked with a icon.

2 Press and hold the button. A voice memo will be recorded while the button is held down (note that no voice memo will be recorded if the button is not held down for at least one second).

Automatic Recording (Shooting Mode)

If On (auto and manual) is selected for Voice memo, a voice memo will be recorded for the last photograph taken when the shutter-release button is released after shooting. Recording will end when the button is pressed or after the specified recording time has ended.
