Cautions
• When recording a movie, you cannot change the settings for exposure compensation,
aperture value, and shutter speed.
• If [Image Stabilizer] is activated while recording a movie, the recorded image is enlarged
slightly. Even if [Vertical IS] or [Horizontal IS] is selected, the setting for [Auto] is applied.
• Stabilization is not possible when the camera shake is excessive.
• When using a lens with the image stabilizer function, turn off the image stabilizer function
of either the lens or the camera.
• When the inside of the camera becomes hot, shooting is automatically stopped to protect
the camera.
• With some art fi lters, [C-AF] operation is limited.
• Cards with an SD speed class of 6 or above are recommended for movie recording.
Optimal aperture is set automatically according to the brightness of
the subject.
Depiction of background is changed by setting the aperture. Use
HI to adjust the aperture.
Shutter speed affects how the subject appears. Use FG to adjust
the shutter speed. Shutter speed can be set to values between 1/30 s
and 1/4000 s.
You control both aperture and shutter speed. Use HI to choose the
aperture, FG to select the shutter speed from values between 1/30
s and 1/4000 s. Sensitivity can be set manually to values between
ISO 400 and 1600; auto ISO sensitivity control is not available.
Movie can be recorded with effects of art fi lter mode.
