Motion file
Notes
You cannot change the image size partway
through a Clip Motion recording.
Reading and writing data take more time
than normal image recording.
Due to the limitations of the GIF format,
the number of colors for Clip Motion
images is reduced to 256 colors or less.
Therefore, the picture quality may
deteriorate for some images.
The file size is reduced in MOBILE mode,
so the picture quality deteriorates.
GIF files not created on this camera may
not be displayed correctly.
All the frame images are immediately
recorded on the “Memory Stick” if the
mode dial is switched or the power is
turned off.

Notes
Focal point information may not
completely show the correct distance. Use
the information as a guide.
If you shoot a subject within 0.5 m
(1 3/4 feet) while the zoom is set to the T
side, you cannot get a clear focus. In such
cases, the focal point information flashes.
Press the zoom W button until the
indicator stops flashing.
