Area Captured in Movies
The area that is captured in a movie varies depending on the Movie
options or Electronic VR settings in the movie menu.
Press the s button and display the movie frame (A3) to check the
range of a movie in a frame before movie recording.
Focusing During Movie Recording
The focus can be adjusted during movie recording in the following manner in
accordance with the Autofocus mode (A54) 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 focus mode (A40) 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.
Exposure Locking
When the multi selector K is pressed during movie recording, the exposure is
locked. To unlock, press K again.
Maximum Movie Recording Time
Individual movie files cannot exceed 4 GB in size or 29 minutes in length, even when
there is sufficient free space on the memory card for longer recording.
The remaining recording time for a single movie is displayed on the shooting
screen.
Recording may end before either limit is reached if camera temperature becomes
elevated.
The actual remaining recording time may vary depending on the movie content,
subject movement, or type of memory card.
Memory cards with an SD Speed Class rating of 6 or faster are recommended when
recording movies (F20). Movie recording may stop unexpectedly when a memory
card with a lower Speed Class rating is used.
B Notes About Camera Temperature
The camera may become hot 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.
