Chapter 2: Taking pictures and recording video clips 32
Recording video clips
A video clip includes audio and can be a maximum of 60
seconds long.
1 Rotate the OFF/Mode selector to
Video mode.
2 Frame the subject for your video
in the active display.
3 Press the Shutter button halfway
down. The camera measures and
then locks the focus.
NOTE Unlike still pictures, exposure is not locked for a video
clip when you press the Shutter button halfway down.
Instead, exposure is continually measured and adjusted
during video recording.
4 Press the Shutter button all the way down and release it to
start recording video. REC and the video counter appear at
the top of the active display.
5 Press the Shutter button all the way down again to stop
recording video.
The camera automatically stops recording when the maximum
video clip length of 60 seconds is reached or the memory card
is full, whichever comes first. After recording has stopped, the
first frame of the video clip and Processing... appear on the
active display. While it is processing, you can delete the video
clip by pressing the Menu/OK button. You can use Playback to
review the video clips you have taken. See Using playback on
page 43.
NOTE Motor noise from optical zooming may be recorded in
the audio portion of a video clip. Thus, for best audio
quality, do not use the zoom while recording video.
