Whichever mode you set the camera to record in this mode is common
to both recording video in the fully automatic iA and iA+ modes and all
the semi-automatic and fully manual modes.
To start recording a video clip in any mode, apart from the creative video
mode (the movie camera icon), it is a simple matter of just pressing the
red record button on the top plate of the camera.
The video record button is used to start and stop
video recording in all modes except in “Creative
Video Mode” where the shutter button is used to
start and stop recording.
If you program the size lever to Focus mode and
switch to manual focus you can perform some
rudimentary “focus pulls” using the side lever.
During recording the screen of the LCD display will indicate the
remaining time left for the clip being taken, the video mode and quality
and the exposure compensation value. Recording time will be limited to
29 minutes and 59 seconds for European sold cameras (to comply with
EU tax laws on camcorders) and to file sizes of 4GB for all other regions
(FAT32 file segment size limitation).
This equates to around 80 minutes in PSH mode or 90 minutes in FSH
mode. In MP4 video mode it is around 100 minutes of FHD recording
quality
If you are shooting the video in the iA or iA+ mode, as with the stills
photography mode, the camera will attempt to classify the scene type
and set appropriate recording parameters to enable the best video
quality to be recorded. The screen will display the current scene type
