AUTO-RECORDING MODE - ADVANCED OPERATION
Voice memo allows a five or fifteen second audio track to be recorded with a still image. The function
is activated and the length of the recording time is set on the auto-recording mode menu (p. 42). In
multi-function recording mode, voice memo is controlled in the custom 2 section of the multi-function
recording menu (p. 54). When the function is active, the microphone icon is displayed on the data
panel and LCD monitor. The voice memo must be set before taking a picture. It will remain in effect
until reset.
After an image is captured, a screen will
appear indicating the audio recording has
started. A bar graph (1) will display the
amount of recorded time remaining. The
recording will automatically stop when the
set time has elapsed. To cancel the
recording and erase the audio track, press
the down key of the controller (2) or the
shutter-release button (3) before the
recording has finished.
The voice memo is attached to the last
frame in a continuous-advance or
bracketing series (p. 32). The voice memo
can be played back in Quick View or in
the playback mode (p. 70). Images with
voice-memo audio tracks have a note icon
displayed with them.
VOICE MEMO
When making audio recordings, be careful not to touch or cover the microphone. The quality of
the recording is proportional to the subject to microphone distance. For best results, hold the
camera approximately 20cm (8in) from your mouth.
