Recording and Playing Back Movies
B Notes About Saving Data
After taking pictures or recording movies, the number of exposures remaining or the remaining
recording time flashes while images or movies are being saved. Do not open the battery-
chamber/memory card slot cover. Image and movie data could be lost and the camera or
memory card could be damaged.
B Notes About Movie Recording
Memory cards with an SD Speed Class rating of 6 or faster are recommended when recording
movies (F19). Movie recording may stop unexpectedly when memory cards with a lower Speed
Class rating are used.
Image quality degrades when digital zoom is used. When recording ends, digital zoom turns off.
The sounds of zoom control operation, zoom, autofocus lens drive movement, and aperture
operation when brightness changes may be recorded.
Smear (F3) visible in the monitor with movie recording is recorded with movies. Avoiding bright
objects such as the sun, reflections of the sun, and electric lights is recommended.
Depending on the distance to the subject or the amount of zoom applied, subjects with repeating
patterns (fabrics, lattice windows, etc.) may have colored stripes (interference patterns, moire, etc.)
in them during movie recording and playback. This occurs when the pattern in the subject and the
layout of the image sensor interfere with each other; it is not a malfunction.
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 after 10 seconds.
The amount of time remaining until the camera stops recording (B10 s) is displayed.
After the camera stops recording, it turns itself off.
Leave the camera off until the inside of the camera has cooled.
