Set the mode switch to the movie-recording position (1).
Before recording, the data-panel and monitor frame
counters show the maximum time in seconds that can be
recorded. The length of the movie clip depends on the
image size and frame rate, and the space available on the
memory card. The maximum recording time is 6 minutes
with 544x408 30fps movies or 15 minutes with other size
and frame-rate combinations; low light levels can shorten
this time. Image size and frame rate is selected with the
movie menu (p. 112). For more on movie recording, see
page 114.
