Recordable Movie Length
• The length of movies you can save is shown at right. A
message will appear if you try to save a longer movie.
Reduce the length or size of the movie if this happens.
IMPORTANT
• Movies edited with this function cannot be transferred back to the camera.
• Saving movies takes time, especially MOV type movies selected with [Save
image type] takes a considerable amount of time.
• There is a file number limit when editing MOV type movies.
To edit and save an MOV movie with a size of 1920 x 1080 at the same size and
file type, set the number of files to 20 or less. Likewise, with 1280 x 720 MOV
movies, the number of files should be set to 40 or less, and with 640 x 480 MOV
movies, 80 or less.
