SHOOTING A MOVIE
Shooting with MOVIE BEST SHOT
With MOVIE BEST SHOT (page 96), you select the preset
scene that is closest to the one you want to shoot, and the
camera sets up for it automatically. Selecting the “Night Scene”
MOVIE BEST SHOT scene, for example, sets the camera to
shoot bright, clear images at night.
Anti Shake Movie Recording
You can also use Anti Shake to reduce the effects of hand
movement only while recording a movie (page 123). The effects
of subject movement are not limited.
Movie Recording Precautions
• You cannot use flash while shooting a movie.
• The camera also records audio. Note the following points
when shooting a movie.
– Take care that the
microphone is not blocked
by your fingers, etc.
– Good results are not
possible when the camera is
too far away from what you
are trying to record.
– Operating camera buttons
while shooting can cause
button noise to be picked up
in the audio.
• Shooting a very bright subject can cause a vertical band to
appear in the monitor screen image. This does not indicate
malfunction. The band will not be recorded in a snapshot, but
will be recorded in the case of a movie.
• Certain types of memory cards take longer to record data,
which can cause movie frames to be dropped. “ ” and
“ ” flash on the monitor screen during recording to let you
know when a frame has been dropped. Use of a memory card
with a maximum transfer speed of at least 10MB per second
is recommended.
