My Camera > Shooting modes

•H.264 (MPEG-4 part10/AVC) is the latest video coding format established in 2003 collaboratively by ISO-IEC and ITU-T. Since this format uses a high compression rate, more data can be saved in less memory space.

•If you have the image stabilizer option on when shooting a movie, the camera may record the image stabilizer sound.

•The zoom sound or other lens sounds may be recorded if you adjust the lens while recording a video.

•When using an optional video lens, the autofocus noise is not recorded.

•If you remove the camera lens while recording a movie, the recording will be interrupted. Do not change the lens while recording.

•If you change the shooting angle of the camera suddenly while shooting a movie, the camera may not be able to record images accurately. Use a tripod to minimize camera shake.

•The camera supports only the Multi AF function when recording a video. You cannot use any other focus area setting functions.

•When the size of a movie file exceeds 4 GB, the camera automatically stops recording even if the maximum recording time (20 minutes) has not been reached.

•If you use a slow writing memory card, the recording of your movie can be interrupted because the card cannot process data at the rate the video is being shot. If this occurs, replace the card with a faster memory card or reduce the video size (for example, from 1280X720 to 640X480).

•When formatting a memory card, always format using the camera. If you format on another camera or a PC, you can lose files on the card or cause a change in the capacity of the card.

•While recording a video in the same ISO sensitivity, the screen may be darker than taking a photo. Adjust the ISO sensitivity.

•When you record a video in Program, Aperture Priority, or Shutter Priority mode, ISO is automatically set to Auto.
