RECORDING MOVIES MOVIE MODE Changing the quality (movie size) setting (➡P.32). The available recording time for a video may decrease depending on the amount of free space on the media. Because a movie is recorded onto the media as it is saved, it cannot be recorded correctly if the camera suddenly loses power (if you open the battery cover or disconnect the AC power adapter). - Page 68 RECORDING MOVIES MOVIE MODE Ｒ Ｅ Ｃ Ｒ Ｅ Ｃ Notes on using Microdrives for movie shooting If the camera’s internal temperature rises too high, movie shooting stops to protect the media. Because Microdrives tend to generate heat (for mechanical reasons), long periods of continuous movie shooting may not be possible when the ambient temperature is high.
