Recording Movies
Flicker, banding, or distortion may be visible in the monitor and in the
final movie under fluorescent, mercury vapor, or sodium lamps or if the
camera is panned horizontally or an object moves at high speed
through frame (for information on reducing flicker and banding, see
Flicker reduction,
0 363). Jagged edges, color fringing, moiré, and
bright spots may also appear. Bright bands may appear in some areas
of the frame with flashing signs and other intermittent light sources or if
the subject is briefly illuminated by a strobe or other bright, momentary
light source. When recording movies, avoid pointing the camera at the
sun or other strong light sources. Failure to observe this precaution
could result in damage to the camera’s internal circuitry. Note that
noise (randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, or lines) and unexpected
colors may appear if you zoom in on the view through the lens (
during movie live view.
Flash lighting can not be used during movie live view.
Recording ends automatically if the lens is removed or the live view
selector is rotated to a new setting.
Live view may end automatically to prevent damage to the camera’s
internal circuits; exit live view when the camera is not in use. Note that
the temperature of the camera’s internal circuits may rise and noise
(bright spots, randomly-spaced bright pixels, or fog) may be displayed
in the following instances (the camera may also become noticeably
warm, but this does not indicate a malfunction):
• The ambient temperature is high
• The camera has been used for extended periods in live view or to
record movies
• The camera has been used in continuous release mode for extended
periods
If live view does not start when you press the
a button, wait for the
internal circuits to cool and then try again.
