Notes on Movie Shooting
The camera cannot autofocus continuously like a camcorder.
During movie shooting, do not point the lens toward the sun. The sun’s
heat can damage the camera’s internal components.
Under [51: Record func+card/folder sel.], even if [Record func.] is set
to [Rec. to multiple] (p.116), the movie cannot be recorded to both the
CF card <f> and SD card <g>. If [Rec. separately] or [Rec. to
multiple] is set, the movie will be recorded to the card which has been
set for [Playback].
If <Q> is set and the ISO speed or aperture changes during movie
shooting, the white balance may also change.
If you shoot a movie under fluorescent or LED lighting, the movie may flicker.
Zooming the lens during movie shooting is not recommended. Zooming
the lens can cause changes in the exposure regardless of whether the
lens’ maximum aperture changes or not. Exposure changes may be
recorded as a result.
Cautions for movie shooting are on pages 241 and 242.
If necessary, also read the Live View shooting cautions on pages
215 and 216.
Movie-related settings are under the [z4] and [z5] tabs (p.239). In the
<A> mode, they are under the [z2] and [z3] tabs.
A movie file is recorded each time you shoot a movie. If the file size
exceeds 4 GB, a new file will be created.
The movie image’s field of view is approx. 100% (with movie recording
size set to [A]).
You can also focus the image by pressing the <p> button.
To focus during movie shooting, press the <p> button. You cannot
focus by pressing the shutter button.
Under [
z5: Movie shoot. btn
], if [
V/
] is selected, you can press the
shutter button completely to start or stop the movie shooting (p.240).
Monaural sound is recorded by the camera’s built-in microphone (p.218).
By connecting a stereo microphone (commercially available) equipped
with a 3.5 mm mini plug to the camera’s external microphone IN terminal
(p.19), stereo sound recording is possible.
By connecting stereo headphones (commercially available) equipped
with a 3.5 mm mini plug to the camera’s headphone terminal (p.19), you
can listen to the sound during movie shooting.
