OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS
— Auto Focus is not performed in the case of the Pan
Focus ( ), Manual Focus ( ) and Infinity ( )
focus modes, and so no confirmation tone sounds. In
the case of the Manual Focus mode, you cannot adjust
focus settings while recording is in progress. Be sure
to make all adjustments before beginning the record
operation.
• Very bright light inside of an image can cause a vertical
band to appear in the monitor screen image. This is a
CCD phenomenon known as “vertical smear”, and does
not indicate malfunction of the camera. Note that vertical
smear is not recorded with the image in the case of a
snapshot, but it is recorded in the case of a movie.
• Certain types of memory cards take longer to record data,
which can cause movie frames to be dropped. and
REC
flash on the monitor screen during recording to let
you know when a frame has been dropped.
• Optical zoom is disabled during movie recording. Digital
zoom only is available. Make sure you select the optical
zoom setting you want to use before you press the
shutter button to start movie recording (page 61).
• The effects of camera movement in an image become
more pronounced when you record close ups or recording
with a large zoom factor. Because of this, use of a tripod
is recommended when recording close ups or recording
with a large zoom factor.
■ Movie Recording Precautions
• The flash does not fire in the Movie mode.
• This camera also records audio. Note the following points
when recording a movie.
— Take care that you do not
block the microphone
with your fingers.
— Good recording results
are not possible when the
camera is too far from the
subject.
— Operating camera
buttons during recording
can cause button noise to
be included in the audio.
— Movie audio is recorded
in monaural.
— The camera focuses automatically whenever you have
Auto Focus or Macro ( ) (page 74) selected as the
focus mode. Note that the confirmation tone that
sounds during the Auto Focus operation will be
recorded in the audio. If you do not want confirmation
tones in your audio, keep Pan Focus (
) as the
focus mode, or select Manual Focus ( ) and
manually focus the image before starting your
recording.
