IMPORTANT
When recording movies, try to get a calm,
stable picture.
Excessive camcorder movement while
shooting and extensive use of fast zooms
and panning can result in jittery scenes. In
extreme cases, the playback of such
scenes may result in visually induced
motion sickness. If you experience such a
reaction, immediately stop the playback
and take a rest break as necessary.
