Recording Movies
Flicker, banding, or distortion may be visible in the display and in the
final movie under fluorescent, mercury vapor, or sodium lamps or if the
camera is panned horizontally or an object moves at high speed
through frame (flicker and banding can be reduced in HD movies by
choosing a Flicker reduction option that matches the frequency of the
local AC power supply as described on page 101, but note that the
slowest shutter speed available is
1
/
100 s at 50 Hz,
1
/
60 s at 60 Hz; flicker
reduction is not available with slow-motion movies). Bright light
sources may leave after-images when the camera is panned. Jagged
edges, color fringing, moiré, and bright spots may also appear. When
recording movies, avoid pointing the camera at the sun or other strong
light sources. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage
to the camera’s internal circuitry.
