●●The recording screen is displayed like a frame dropping with a slight delay compared to normal recording.

●●No audio is recorded for motion pictures.

●●When a motion picture is recorded, the finished recording will be approximately 1/10th of the actual recorded time period. (If you record a motion picture for 10 minutes, the resulting motion picture recording time will be approximately 1 minute.) The recordable time displayed on the camera is approx. 10x longer than actual time needed for recording. When the Recording Mode is changed, be sure to check the recordable time.

●●If you stop recording motion pictures too soon, the camera may continue recording until a certain time. Hold the camera until the camera stops recording.

●●When you take a picture using a large picture size setting, the screen will become dark for a certain period of time after the picture is taken. However, this occurs due to signal processing and is not a defect.
