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 or a pink cast on the
monitor screen image. This does not indicate malfunction.
Using the camera’s built-in memory or certain types of memory cards can slow
down processing speed. Whenever possible use an Ultra High-Speed Type
memory card. Note, however, that not all operations can be guaranteed even if an
Ultra High-Speed Type memory card is used. Certain movie quality settings can
result in too much time being required to record data, which can result in breaks in
the image and/or audio during playback. If this happens, the » and Y will flash
on the monitor screen.
Only digital zoom can be used for zooming during movie recording. Since optical
zoom is not possible while recording a movie, zoom as required before pressing
[0] (Movie) 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.
Focus is fixed while movie recording is in progress.

You can use [2] ( ) while shooting a movie to change the flash mode setting.
