About the aperture value and shutter speed to be used for recording motion pictures

●●About aperture value

••To record motion pictures with a sharp focus on both subject and background, set the aperture value to a higher number. To record motion pictures with a defocused background, set a lower number.

●●About the shutter speed

••To record a sharp motion picture of a fast-moving subject, set a faster shutter speed. To record a motion picture with a trailing effect for a subject’s movements, set a slower shutter speed.

••When you set a faster shutter speed, the screen noise may increase due to the higher sensitivity.

••When you record a subject under fluorescent or LED lighting fixtures, etc., the colors and screen brightness may change or horizontal striping may appear on the screen. If this happens, we recommend manually adjusting the shutter speed to 1/60 seconds or 1/100 seconds.

About operation sound when recording ends

Since motion pictures are recorded until the motion picture button is pressed to stop recording, the operating sound level in the picture may be higher. To suppress this sound, we recommend trying the following method.

●●Divide the end part of a motion picture using [Video Divide] (→214) in the [Playback] menu. In some cases, motion pictures cannot be divided at a position close to the end part of the motion picture. To avoid this problem, continue recording for an extra 3 seconds.
