BNotes on Recording Movies

Exposure compensation (A40) is available. A(autofocus), D(macro close-up), and B(infinity) are available for the focus mode (A37). Flash (A32) can only be used for time-lapse movies. The self- timer is unavailable. Quick-response remote (A36) can be used (except for time-lapse movie).

Flash mode, focus mode, and exposure compensation settings cannot be applied or changed while movies are being recorded. Apply or change settings as necessary before movie recording begins.

Optical zoom cannot be adjusted once movie recording begins. Digital zoom cannot be applied before movie recording begins. However, digital zoom (up to 2×) can be applied while movies, other than time-lapse movies, are being recorded.

BNote on During Recording

When the movie has been fully recorded to the internal memory or memory card, the monitor display will revert to the normal shooting mode display. Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover while movies are being recorded. Turning the camera off or removing the memory card while movies are being recorded could result in loss of data or in damage to the camera or card.

DChanging Movie Settings

Movie options and Autofocus mode settings can be changed from the movie menu (A80).

When Movie options is set to Time-lapse movieP, movies are recorded without sound.
