Available shooting time display in movie mode
• The shooting time shown on the LCD monitor when you start shooting in movie mode does not indicate
the time available for one continuous shot. The length of a continuous movie shot is limited by the speed
at which data is written to the SD memory card and differs depending on the card you are using.
• If you use a high-speed SD memory card (an SD memory card with a write speed of 10 MB/sec or
faster), the available shooting time displayed on the LCD monitor serves as a guide to the actual
continuous shooting time available.
