Taking Photographs in Movie Live View
To take a photograph in movie live view, press the shutter-release button all the way down. If fi lming
is in progress, recording will end (the footage recorded to that point will be saved) and the camera will
return to live view. The photograph will be recorded at the current image area setting using a crop
with an aspect ratio of 16 : 9. Note that the exposure for photographs can not be previewed during
movie live view; mode e, f, or g is recommended, but accurate results can be achieved in mode h by
adjusting exposure during live view photography and then rotating the live view selector to 1 and
checking the image area. Exposure compensation for the photograph can be set to values between
–5 and +5 EV, but only values between –3 and +3 can be previewed in the monitor.
Remote Cords
If Record movies is selected for Custom Setting g4 (Assign shutter button), optional remote cords
can be used to start movie live view and to start and end recording: press the shutter-release button
on the remote cord halfway to start live view and all the way down to start or end recording.
