Using the Movie mode

In Movie mode, you can customize settings to record HD videos of up to 20 minutes in length. The camera saves recorded videos as MP4 (H.264) files.

•H.264 (MPEG-4 part10/AVC) is a high-compression video format established by the international standards organizations ISO-IEC and ITU-T.

•Some memory cards may not support high definition recording. If your card does not, set a lower resolution.

•Memory cards with slow writing speeds will not support high- resolution videos. To record high-resolution videos, use memory cards with faster write speeds.

•If you activate the OIS function while recording a video, the camera may record the operating sound of the OIS function.

•If you use the zoom function when recording a video, the camera may record the noise of the zoom operating. To decrease zoom noise, use the Sound Alive function. (p. 80)
