■
About the compatibility of the recorded motion pictures
Motion pictures recorded in [AVCHD] or [MP4] may be played back with poor picture or
sound quality or playback may not be possible even when played back with equipment
compatible with these formats. Also, the recording information may not be displayed
properly. In this case, use this unit.
• When you import and play back motion pictures recorded with [FHD/28M/50p],
[FHD/24M/25p], or [FHD/24M/24p] in [AVCHD] using a device other than this unit,
a compatible Blu-ray disc recorder or PC installed with "PHOTOfunSTUDIO" is
required.
• For details on motion pictures recorded with [4K/100M/25p] or [4K/100M/24p] in the
[MP4] format, refer to "Enjoying 4K motion pictures" (→274).

• When the focus mode is set to [AFS], [AFF], or [AFC], the camera will refocus if the
shutter button is pressed halfway while recording motion pictures.
• When Auto Focus is activated while you are recording motion pictures, the focusing
operation sound may be recorded under some conditions. If you want to suppress this
sound, we recommend taking pictures after setting [Continuous AF] to [OFF] in the
