3 Taking Videos
Use Video mode to take videos and to customize video-taking settings.
Before you take a video, make sure your picture storage location is set the way
you want it (see page 12).
NOTE: Flash is not available in Video mode. Change Optical Zoom before (but
not during) video recording. Sound is captured by the microphone, but
is played back only when the video is transferred to a computer or when
the camera is connected to a television (see page 48).
