106
• The operational sound of the zoom or button operation may be recorded when it is operated 
during the recording of a motion picture.
• The zoom speed decreases during the recording of a motion picture.
• Depending on the type of the card, the card access indication may appear for a while after 
recording motion pictures. This is not a malfunction.
• When the aspect ratio setting is different in still and motion pictures, the angle of view 
changes at the start of motion picture recording.
When [Rec Area] is set to [ ], angle of view during motion picture recording is displayed.
• If the Extra Optical Zoom are used before pressing the motion picture button, those settings 
will be cleared, so the angle of view will change dramatically.
• Stereo effects may not be obtained underwater.
• Noise may be recorded underwater.
• If water is left in the microphone or speaker hole, weak or distorted audio may be recorded 
and played back. Drain the water, and use the camera only after letting it dry for a while. (P17)
