Recording Movie Images and Audio

• Spending a long time using movie recording will cause the camera to become 

slightly warm to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

• The camera also records audio. Note the following points when 

shooting a movie.
– Take care that the microphone is not blocked by your fingers, 

etc.

– Good recording results are not possible when the camera is 

too far away from what you are trying to record.

– Operating camera buttons while shooting can cause button 

noise to be picked up in the audio.

• Shooting a very bright subject can cause a vertical band or a pink cast on the 

monitor screen image. This does not indicate malfunction.

• Use of certain types of memory cards or the camera’s built-in memory increases 

the time it takes to record movies, which can cause movie frames to be lost. This 
condition is indicated by » and Y flashing on the monitor screen. To avoid loss 
of movie frames, use of a memory card with a maximum transfer speed of at least 
10MB per second is recommended (page 162).

• Only digital zoom can be used for zooming during movie recording. Since optical 

zoom is not possible while recording a movie, zoom as required before pressing 
[0] to start recording.

• The effects of camera movement in an image become more pronounced when you 

shoot close up or with a large zoom factor. Because of this, use of a tripod is 
recommended under these conditions.

• Auto Focus and Macro Focus become fixed focus while shooting a movie (page 

38).
