Using Short Movie - Casio Exilim EX-Z1080 User Manual

• Optical zoom is disabled while shooting a movie. Digital zoom
only is available while shooting a movie. If you want to use a
particular optical zoom setting, make sure you select it before
you press the shutter button to start movie recording (page
69).
• The effects of camera movement in an image become more
pronounced when you shoot close up or a large zoom factor.
Because of this, use of a tripod is recommended under these
conditions.
• When the subject is outside the camera's focus range,
focusing is not possible and the image will be out of focus.
• The angle of view for movies is less than that for snapshots.

Using Short Movie

Short Movie shoots a movie that starts four seconds before the
shutter button is pressed and ends four seconds after it is
pressed.
• Since four seconds of action before the shutter button is
pressed are recorded, Short Movie is a good way to make
sure you don't miss the action of kids or other active subjects.
• You can also use MOTION PRINT (page 175) to extract still
images of Short Movie scenes.
