TIPS
To keep your subject in focus all the time while shooting.
The auto focus does not operate during recording when R (movie) is set to
ON.
→ Set R (movie) to OFF and FULLTIME AF to ON. g“FULLTIME AF - A
reliable time-saving way to focus” (P.75)
To use the zoom while shooting.
The optical zoom is not available during recording when R (movie) is set to
ON.
→ Set DIGITAL ZOOM to ON. g“Using the digital zoom” (P.58)
→ Set R (movie) to OFF, and you can use the optical zoom while shooting.
g“Recording sound with movies” (P.101)
• Depending on the card, the remaining recording time may drop rapidly
during recording. Try using the card again after formatting it.
g“Formatting cards” (P.166)
• When R is set to ON, the movie is recorded with the focus that was set when
the shutter button was pressed in Step 3. If the distance to the subject
changes, focus may be compromised.
•In n mode, the flash and manual focus (MF) cannot be used.
Note
• Recording will continue until the card is full unless stopped by pressing the
shutter button.
• A long recorded movie cannot be edited. (P.130)
• If a single movie recording uses up all of the card’s memory, create space
on the card by deleting the movie or downloading it to a PC.
