Movie Shooting

Shooting Mode
The following movie modes are available.
The recording time will vary according to the capacity of the memory
card you use (p. 191).
Standard
You can select the recording pixels and record until the memory card
is full (when a super high-speed memory card is used, such as the
recommended SDC-512MSH). The digital zoom can be used while
shooting in this mode (p. 60).
• Maximum Size: 4 GB*/movie
Compact
Since there are few recording pixels and also the data size is small,
this mode is convenient for sending movies as e-mail attachments or
when the memory card capacity is low.
• Maximum Clip Length: 3 minutes
* Even if the clip size has not reached 4 GB, recording will stop at the moment the clip
length reaches 1 hour. Depending on the volume and data writing speed of the
memory card, recording may stop before reaching 1 hour or before the recorded data
volume has reached 4 GB.
