Recording Motion Picture

This camera can record full high definition motion pictures compatible with the AVCHD format or motion pictures recorded in MP4.

You can operate the zoom even when recording motion pictures.

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

Still picture recording is also possible during the motion picture recording by fully pressing the shutter button.
