available are shown in the picture display. Press the shutter release 
button halfway or all the way down to end recording.

movies recorded at a [Movie Size] of [

recorded at [

z 640] or [y 320]. Depending on the type of memory card used, 

shooting may end before this length is reached. The maximum total length of 
all movie files that can be stored depends on the capacity of the memory card 
(GP.131).

recorded image.
