#Caution

When recording a movie, you cannot change the settings for exposure compensation and aperture value, and shutter speed.

The size of each movie file is limited to 2GB. With some types of media, shooting may be interrupted unexpectedly before reaching the end of available recording time.

If [IMAGE STABILIZER] is activated while recording a movie, the recorded image is enlarged slightly. Even if [I.S. 2] or [I.S. 3] is selected, the setting for [I.S. 1] is applied.

Stabilization is not possible when the camera shake is excessive.

When using a lens with the image stabilizer function, turn off the image stabilizer function of either the lens or the camera.

You cannot use [gFACE PRIORITY] in movie mode.

When the inside of the camera becomes hot, shooting is automatically stopped to protect the camera.

With some art filters, [C-AF] operation is limited.

It is recommended to use a SD speed class 6 compatible card for movie shooting.

The camera may not correctly display the recording time in art filter mode. Movies recorded in [ART5] (DIORAMA) mode play back at high speed; during recording, the recording time is adjusted to reflect the playback time and advances more slowly than usual.
