B Note on Recording Images and Saving Movies
The indicator showing the number of exposures remaining or the indicator showing the maximum
movie length flashes while images are being recorded or while a movie is 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 on Movie Recording
• When saving a movie onto a memory card, a memory card with an SD speed class of Class 6 or
higher is recommended (A21). If the transfer speed of the card is slow, the movie recording may
end unexpectedly.
• The sounds of zoom control operation, zoom, autofocus, vibration reduction or aperture control
when the brightness changes may be recorded.
• The following phenomena may be seen on the monitor screen 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
B Notes on the 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.
• When the temperature inside the camera becomes extremely
high during movie recording, the camera may automatically stop
recording to prevent internal damage to the camera. A 10-second
countdown indicator (B10s) appears on the monitor, and then
the camera automatically stops recording and turns off when the
message “The camera will turn off to prevent overheating.”
is displayed.
Leave the camera off until the inside of the camera has cooled
and then use it.
C Functions Available in Movie Recording
• The exposure compensation and White balance settings in shooting menu (A67) are also
applied with movie recording.
• When focus mode is set to p (macro close-up), the camera can zoom to a position closer to the
subject to record movies. Confirm settings before starting movie recording.
• The self-timer (A59) can be used. If the self-timer is set and the b (e movie-record) button is
pressed, the camera starts movie recording after 10 or 2 seconds.
• The flash does not fire.
• Press the d button before starting to record the movie to display the D (movie) tab and select
movie menu settings (A96).
