Panasonic DMC-ZS1K operating instructions VQT1Z82

Using a card of SD speed ‘Class 6’ or above is recommended for recording motion pictures.

The SD speed class is a speed rating for continuous writing.

Using a high-speed card with a specified speed (e.g. on packaging) of at least 10 MB/s is recommended when ‘REC QUALITY’ is set to ‘HD’, ‘WVGA’, or ‘VGA’.

A maximum of approx. 2 GB of continuous motion pictures can be recorded in MOTION JPEG format. (Even if there is more than 2 GB of available space on the card, the available recording time will be calculated for a maximum of 2 GB.) To record more than 2 GB, press the motion picture button again. In AVCHD Lite format, recording may be continued until the card is full.

If data is repeatedly recorded and deleted, the total available recording time on the SD card may be reduced. To restore the original capacity, use the camera to format the SD card. Be sure to save all important data to your computer or other media before formatting, as all data saved to the card will be erased.

Do not block the microphone with your fingers.

Immediately release the motion picture button after pressing it. No audio will be recorded for a few seconds after recording is started if the button is held down.

Sounds of camera operations, such as zoom movement and beeps may be recorded.

The zoom speed is slower than normal.

STABILIZER is fixed at ‘MODE1’ regardless of the setting before motion picture recording.

To fix the focus setting, set ‘CONTINUOUS AF’ to ‘OFF’.

The following functions are not available.

Extended optical zoom, flash, FACE RECOG., ‘NATURAL’ and ‘VIVID’ in ‘COLOR MODE’, ROTATE DISP. for pictures taken vertically

Recording automatically ends when there is no more available space. For certain memory cards, recording may end while in progress.

MultiMediaCards are not supported.

The screen can become narrower in motion pictures compared to pictures. The recordable area is displayed by setting ‘REC AREA’ (P.22) to ‘ON’.

If extended optical zoom was used before pressing the motion picture button, these settings will be cleared, and the recordable area will be larger.

‘QVGA’ in ‘REC QUALITY’ (P.80) only can be recorded to the built-in memory.

If power is lost while using the AC adaptor to record a motion picture (e.g. power failure, cable disconnection, etc), the motion picture being recorded will be lost. Using a sufficiently-charged battery in conjunction with the AC adapter is recommended.

Fast-moving objects in motion pictures may appear blurred during playback.
