Motion pictures
Recording motion pictures is not possible.

card.
Motion picture recording stops in the middle.
•
Use a card with SD Speed Class with "Class 4" or higher when recording motion pictures.
•
Depending on the type of the card, recording may stop in the middle.
> If motion picture recording stops during use of a card of at least "Class 4" or if you use a card on
which recording and deleting have been repeated many times, or a card that has been formatted
on a PC or other equipment, the data-writing speed is lower. In such cases, we recommend that
you make a backup of the data and then format
When recording a motion picture, the screen may go dark.
•
When recording a motion picture, the screen may go dark after a certain period to reduce battery
consumption, but this will not affect the recorded motion picture.
The screen may be blacked out momentarily, or the unit may record noise.
•
The screen may be blacked out momentarily, or the unit may record noise due to static electricity or
electromagnetic waves etc. depending on the environment of the motion picture recording.
Object seems to be warped.
•
Object seems to be warped slightly when the object moves across the image very fast, but this is
because the unit is using MOS for the image sensor. This is not a malfunction.
In motion pictures, abnormal clicking and buzzing sounds are recorded.
The recorded sound is very quiet.
•
With recording in a quiet environment, depending on the lenses used, the sound of aperture and
focus actions may be recorded in motion pictures. This is not a malfunction. Focus operation while
recording motion pictures can be set to [OFF] with [Continuous AF] (P52).
•
Be careful while recording motion pictures because the sounds of the zoom operations, buttons and
dial operation etc. may be recorded.
•
While recording motion pictures, plugging the aperture of the microphone with a finger may reduce
the level of audio recording or audio may not record at all. Also be careful because the operation
sound of lenses can easily be recorded at this time.
