Video Recording
1. Power up the camera and set it to the manual video recording mode. (See section
titled “Selecting Image-Taking Modes” to select Mode 1.)
2. In the manual video recording mode, press the Execute Button once. The camera will
shake once and the blue LED flashes slowly indicating that video is being recorded.
3. To stop video recording press the Execute Button again. The blue LED will return to
constant on indicating that recording has stopped and the camera is waiting in its
standby mode.
4. Video recording can occur for a period of 20 minutes at which time the camera will
save the clip and recording will automatically resume in a new file.
Motion-Detect Video Recording
1. Power up the camera and set it to the Motion-Detect Video Recording mode. (See
section titled “Selecting Image- Taking Modes” to select Mode 3.)
2. In this mode, the camera will automatically take video clips of moving objects for a
preset length of 10 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes or 10 minutes. It will save each clip
in its own file and immediately continue recording another clip of the same length; it
will be saved in its own file, and the process will repeat until you stop the recording
process.
3. If the flash card becomes full, the camera will delete the first recorded clip and
overwrite it with the most current video. This procedure is called “loop recording” and
