Basic

When recording to the built-in memory, [Rec Quality] is fixed to [QVGA].

The available recording time displayed on the screen may not decrease regularly.

Depending on the type of the card, the card access indication may appear for a while after recording motion pictures. This is not a malfunction.

When motion pictures recorded with the camera are played back on other equipment, the quality of the picture and sound may deteriorate and it may not be possible to play them back. Also the recording information may not be displayed correctly.

The screen may be blacked out momentarily, or the unit may record noise due to static electricity or electromagnetic waves etc. depending on the environment of the motion picture recording.

Do not insert or remove the card during motion picture recording. (Otherwise, this unit may no longer operate normally and the card itself may be damaged or the recorded pictures may be lost.)

Even if the aspect ratio setting is the same in still pictures and motion pictures, the angle of view may change at the start of the motion picture recording.

When [Video Rec Area] (P41) is set to [ON], angle of view during motion picture recording is displayed.

If the Extended Optical Zoom are used before pressing the motion picture button, those settings will be cleared, so the shooting range will change dramatically.

The optical zoom magnification cannot be changed after starting to record motion pictures. However, Intelligent Zoom can be used by setting [i.Zoom] (P75) in the [Rec] menu to [ON]. Also, the Digital Zoom can be used by setting the [Digital Zoom] (P75) in the [Rec] menu to [ON]. For details about the zoom range, refer to P47. If motion picture recording was started within the optical zoom area, the zoom setting returns to the original magnification when motion picture recording is finished.

It will be recorded in following categories for certain Scene Modes. A motion picture recording matching each scene will be performed for the ones not listed below.
