Shooting a Movie

The following four movie modes are available.

*1 The frame rate indicates the number of frames recorded/replayed in one

second. The higher the frame rate, the smoother the motion.

*2 When a super high-speed memory card is used, such as the recommended

SDC-512MSH model.

*3 The recording time will vary according to the capacity of the memory card

you use. See p. 140 for details.
