DRecording Movies

Flicker, banding, or distortion may be visible in the monitor 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. Jagged edges, false colors, moiré, and bright spots may also appear. If a flash or other light source with brief duration is used during recording, bright bands may appear or the top or bottom of the frame may brighten. When recording movies, avoid pointing the camera at the sun or other strong light sources. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to the camera’s internal circuitry.

Matrix metering is used regardless of the metering method selected.

 

Depending on the brightness of the subject, changes to exposure may

 

have no visible effect. Shutter speed and sensitivity are displayed in live

 

y

view and during recording, but do not always apply to movies. Note

 

that movies can not be recorded if a CPU lens with an aperture ring is

 

attached with Aperture ring selected for Custom Setting f8 (Customize

 

command dials) > Aperture setting (0 323). Select Sub-command

 

dial when using a CPU lens with an aperture ring.

 

Recording ends automatically if the lens is removed.

 

When used in live view mode for extended periods, the camera’s

 

internal temperature may rise, resulting in noise (randomly-spaced

 

bright pixels or fog; the camera may also become noticeably warm, but

 

this does not indicate a malfunction). To prevent damage to the

 

camera’s internal circuits, recording will end automatically before the

 

camera overheats. A count-down display will appear in the monitor

 

30 s before shooting ends. At high ambient temperatures, this display

 

may appear immediately when live view mode is selected.

 

Sounds made by the camera lens when aperture is adjusted or during

 

focusing may be picked up by the microphone in tripod mode.

 

D Exposure Mode M

 

When exposure mode his selected in tripod mode, shutter speed,

 

aperture, and ISO sensitivity can be changed in the exposure preview

 

(0 66). Note that the expected results will not be achieved at ISO

 

sensitivities below ISO 200 or above ISO 12800 or at shutter speeds

 

slower than 1/25 s, and that auto ISO sensitivity control and high-

 

sensitivity movie mode should be off.
