Audio can be recorded without an image. About 30 minutes of audio can be stored on a 16MB mem-
ory card. Audio is recorded at approximately 8KB/s. A maximum of 180 minutes can be recorded at
one time; the optional AC adapter is required for long recordings.
Turn the mode dial to the movie/audio recording position
(1). On the movie/audio menu, change the recording mode
to audio. See page 58 for details on menu operation.

The frame counter will display the elapsed time; during the last
ten seconds, the counter will turn red and count down the time.
The recording will stop when the shutter-release button is
pressed again or the remaining time has elapsed.
When making audio recordings, be careful not to touch or
cover the microphone. The quality of the recording is propor-
tional to the subject to microphone distance. For best results,
hold the camera approximately 20cm (8in) from your mouth.
