When the subject is focused, the focus indication lights.

The available recording time A is displayed on the top right and the elapsed recording time B is displayed on the bottom right of the screen.

For example, 1 hour 20 minutes and 30 seconds is displayed as [1h20m30s].

The available recording time and the elapsed recording time are approximations.

Audio recording starts simultaneously from the camera’s built-in microphone.

You can use the zoom while recording. However, the zoom movement becomes slower than usual.

Zoom or operation sounds may be recorded.

We recommend setting [CONT.AF] (P76) to [ON]. It can also be set to [OFF], however if you rotate the zoom lever it will become difficult to focus.
