Shooting/Playing Back Movies

3 Shooting Movies

You can shoot movies with sound.

You can select the image size, either 320 x 240 or 160 x 120 pixels.

You can select number of frames shot per second (frame rate), either 30 or 15. Each movie you shoot is recorded as one AVI file.

1. Switch the Mode Selector to 3 (Movie Mode).

2. Press the shutter release button.

The camera starts recording. Recording continues until you press the shutter button again.

3. Pressing the shutter button again stops recording.

Caution

While shooting movies, operation sounds may be recorded.

The maximum recording time per shooting depends on your card. Even within the maximum recording time, some cards may end shooting.

Note

The flash cannot be used.

While shooting movies, only Digital Zoom can be used.

At the time you press the shutter button in Step 2, the shot comes into focus and the white balance is automatically fixed.

The remaining recording time may not change uniformly because it is recalculated from the remaining memory capacity during movie recording.
