Movie Recording Time
When shooting a long movie, multiple files are stored as you shoot. How often a file is
stored depends on the movie quality setting.
• FHD: A file is stored every 29 minutes (maximum) of movie length.
• Other than FHD: A file is stored every 4 GB (maximum) of data generated.
IMPORTANT!
• Spending a long time using movie recording will cause the camera to become
slightly warm to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.
• Movie recording also records audio. Note the points below
when shooting a movie.
– Take care that the microphone is not blocked by your
fingers, etc.
– Good audio recording results are not possible when the
camera is too far away from what you are trying to
record.
