Recording Images
IMPORTANT!
• Spending a long time using movie recording will cause the camera to become
slightly warm to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.
• The camera also records audio along with Full HD and HD
movies. Note the following points when shooting a movie.
– Take care that the microphone is not blocked by your
fingers, etc.
– Good audio recording results are not possible when the
camera is too far away from what you are trying to
record.
• Shooting movies for long periods in areas where
temperature is relatively high can cause digital noise (dots of light) to appear in the
movie image. A rise in the camera’s internal temperature also may force movie
recording to stop automatically. If this happens, stop recording and allow the
camera to cool down, which should cause normal operation to resume.
• Using the camera’s built-in memory or certain types of memory cards can slow
down processing speed. Whenever possible use an Ultra High-Speed Type
memory card. Note, however, that not all operations can be guaranteed even if an
Ultra High-Speed Type memory card is used. Certain movie quality settings can
result in too much time being required to record data, which can result in breaks in
the image and/or audio during playback. If this happens, the movie icon will turn
yellow on the monitor screen.
NOTE
• Except for High Speed Movie, zoom operations are supported during movie
recording (page 40). Zoom is disabled during high speed movie recording. If you
want to use zoom, perform the zoom operation before you touch “
b
” (Movie) to
start recording.
• SR Zoom (page 40) is disabled during movie recording.
• The effects of camera movement in an image become more pronounced when you
shoot close up or with a large zoom factor. Because of this, stabilizing the camera
by placing it on a level surface, etc. is recommended.
• During High Speed Movie recording, focus is fixed at the position where it was
when recording started. To focus an image, half-press the shutter button for Auto
Focus before you touch “
b
” (Movie) to start recording.
