B Notes About Using Zoom During Movie Recording
• The zoom indicator is not displayed during movie recording.
• There may be some degradation in image quality when digital zoom is used. If you
zoom in on the subject while recording a movie, the zoom motion temporarily
stops at the position where optical zoom is changed to digital zoom.
B Camera Temperature
• The camera may become warm when recording movies for an extended period of
time or when the camera is used in a hot area.
• If the inside of the camera becomes extremely hot when recording movies, the
camera will automatically stop recording. The amount of time remaining until the
camera stops recording (B10s) is displayed. After the camera stops recording, it
turns itself off.
Leave the camera off until the inside of the camera has cooled.
Focusing and Exposure Locking During Movie Recording
• The focus can be adjusted during movie recording in the following manner
in accordance with the Autofocus mode (A89) setting of the movie
menu.
- A Single AF (default setting): The focus is locked when movie
recording starts. To perform the autofocus function during movie
recording, press the multi selector J.
- B Full-time AF: The focus is adjusted repeatedly even during movie
recording.
• When the multi selector K is pressed during movie recording, the exposure
is locked. To unlock, press K again.
• When the focus mode (A61) is E (manual focus), adjust the focus
manually. The focus can be adjusted while recording movies by rotating the
multi selector counterclockwise to focus on far subjects or clockwise to
focus on near subjects.
• Autofocus may not perform as expected (A78). Should this occur, try E
(manual focus) (A62, 63) or set
Autofocus mode
in the movie menu to
A Single AF (default setting) and then use focus lock (A79) to record.
