Using shooting modes

Using the Movie mode

In Movie mode, you can record high-definition 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 standard organizations ISO-IEC and ITU-T.

Some memory cards may not support high definition recording. If this occurs, set a lower resolution.

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

If you have activated Optical Image Stabilization, the camera may record the sounds the OIS makes when it operates.
