Notes About Movie Recording
B Notes About Saving Images or Movies
The indicator showing the number of exposures remaining or the indicator showing
the remaining recording time flashes while images or movies are being saved. Do
not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover or remove the
battery or memory card while an indicator is flashing. Doing this could result in
loss of data, or in damage to the camera or the memory card.
B Notes About Recorded Movies
• The optical zoom ratio cannot be changed once recording starts.
• There may be some degradation in image quality when digital zoom is used.
• The sounds of multi selector operation, autofocus lens drive movement, and
aperture operation when brightness changes may be recorded.
• The following phenomena may be seen in the monitor while recording movies.
These phenomena are saved in the recorded movies.
- Banding may occur in images under fluorescent, mercury-vapor, or sodium-
vapor lighting.
- Subjects that move quickly from one side of the frame to the other, such as a
moving train or car, may appear skewed.
- The entire movie image may be skewed when the camera is panned.
- Lighting or other bright areas may leave residual images when the camera is
moved.
• Depending on the distance to the subject or the amount of zoom applied, colored
stripes may appear on subjects with repeating patterns (fabrics, lattice windows,
etc.) 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 Notes About Autofocus for Movie Recording
Autofocus may not perform as expected (A39). Should this occur, try the following:
Frame another subject (positioned at the same distance from the camera as the
intended subject) in the center of the frame, press the b (e movie-record) button
to start recording, and then modify the composition.
