Recording Movie Images and Audio
NOTE
Spending a long time using movie recording will cause the camera to become
slightly warm to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.
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 recording 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.
Use of certain types of memory cards increase the time it takes to record movies,
which can cause movie frames to be lost. This condition is indicated by » and Y
flashing on the monitor screen. To avoid loss of movie frames, use of a memory
card with a maximum transfer speed of at least 10MB per second is recommended.
When “Off” is selected for Control Panel display (page 97), the Control Panel will
not appear on the monitor screen even if you press [SET] during movie recording.
Optical zoom is not possible while recording a movie, zoom as required before
pressing [0] to start recording.
The effects of camera movement in an image become more pronounced when you
shoot close up or with a large zoom factor. Because of this, use of a tripod is
recommended under these conditions.
Auto Focus and Macro Focus become fixed focus while shooting a movie (page
49).
