Movie Recording and Playback
B Recording Movies
• Optical zoom cannot be adjusted once movie recording begins. Digital zoom cannot be applied
before movie recording begins. However, digital zoom can be applied (up to 2×) while movies are
being recorded.
• There may be some degradation in image quality when digital zoom is used.
• The angle of view (recordable area) with movie recording is narrower than with shooting of still
pictures.
• Smear (A 148) visible in the monitor with movie recording will be recorded with movies.
Avoiding bright objects such as the sun, reflections of the sun, and electric lights when recording
movies is recommended.
B Note on Saving Movies
After a movie has been recorded, it is not fully saved to the internal memory or memory card until
monitor display returns to the shooting display. Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card
slot cover before movies have been fully saved. Removing the memory card while movies are being
saved could result in loss of data or in damage to the camera or card.
B Note on Autofocus
When A Single AF (default setting) is selected for Autofocus mode in movie menu, focus locks
when the shutter-release button is pressed (A 109).
C Functions Available with Movie Recording
• Macro mode (A 33) is available. Confirm settings before starting movie recording. The flash
(A 30), self-timer (A 32) and exposure compensation (A 34) cannot be used.
• Press the d button to display the D (movie) menu (A 108) and adjust Movie options,
Autofocus mode, and Electronic VR.
