Audio can be recorded without an image. Audio can be recorded without an image. About 31
minutes 43 seconds of audio can be stored on the 15MB internal memory. Audio is recorded at
approximately 8KB/s. A maximum of 180 minutes can be recorded at one time; the optional AC
adapter is required for long recordings.
AUDIO RECORDING
Slide the mode switch to the movie/audio recording
position. In section 1 of the menu, change the record-
ing mode to audio, see page 40.
Before recording, the approximate recording time
available is displayed on the frame counter. To begin
recording, press and release the shutter button.
The frame counter counts down the time. The record-
ing stops when the shutter-release button is pressed
again or the remaining time has elapsed.
When making audio recordings, be careful not to
touch or cover the microphone. The quality of the
recording is proportional to the subject to microphone
distance. For best results, hold the camera approxi-
mately 20cm (8in) from your mouth.
RECORDING MODE
The recording-mode menu options switches between movie and audio recording. This option is
located in section 1 of the movie/audio menu (p. 40).

FRAME RATE & MOVIE FILE SIZES
Movies can be recorded at two frame rates: 15 fps and 30 fps. The higher the frame rate, the
smoother the moving image and the larger the file sizes. Frame rate is set in section 1 of the movie
menu (p. 40).
30 fps
15 fps
30 fps
15 fps
Approximate recording rate
If frame rate is changed, the frame counter displays
the approximate number of seconds that can be
recorded. The total time that can be recorded is
determined by the available memory and the record-
ing rate. The actual file size is determined by the
scene; some subjects can be compressed further
than others.

MOVIE MODE
The movie mode option selects the type of movie recorded. Standard produces a normal movie
clip. Night Movie uses high camera sensitivity to record under low light levels; camera sensitivity
increases automatically in low light. Image quality can be lower with Night Movies because of the
higher sensitivity. The movie mode is set in section 1 of the movie menu (p. 40).
The writing speed of the memory card may prematurely end the recording of a movie clip. Test the
card before important events. Check the Konica Minolta web site for the latest compatibility infor-
