	Setting			Resolution		Bit rate 1	Aspect ratio
		SH		1280 x 720		17 Mbps	16:9
		H		1280 x 720		13 Mbps

	Setting			Resolution		Frame rate 2	Aspect ratio
	HD			1280 x 720		30 fps	16:9
	WVGA			848 x 480		30 fps
		VGA		640 x 480		30 fps	4:3
	QVGA			320 x 240		30 fps

1 The bit rate is the amount of data per unit time. A higher value translates into a higher image quality. This camera uses the VBR (Variable Bit Rate) recording system and the available recording time is shorter when recording a subject with rapid movements.

2 The frame rate is the number of frames per second.

‘WVGA’ cannot be set in INTELLIGENT AUTO Mode. ‘QVGA’ only can be recorded to the built-in memory.

CONTINUOUS AF

Either allow the focus to be constantly adjusted during motion picture recording, or fix the focus position at the start of recording.

MODE: → MOTION PICTURE menu → REC menu

Settings: ON: Adjust focus according to movement of subject during motion picture recording. ( appears on the screen.)

OFF: Fix focus position at the start of motion picture recording.

Use this setting to keep the same focus position for subjects with little forward/backward movement.

WIND CUT

Reduces recording of wind sounds (wind noise) when recording in a strong wind

MODE: → MOTION PICTURE menu

Settings: OFF/ON ( appears on the screen.)

When WIND CUT is set to ‘ON’, lower sounds will be eliminated and the sound quality will differ from that of normal recordings.
