Shoot.

Follow step 4 in “Shooting (Smart Auto)”

(= 32) to shoot a still image.

The camera records both a still image

and movie clip. The clip, which ends with

the still image and a shutter sound, forms

a single chapter in the digest movie.

Battery life is shorter in this mode than in [

] mode, because

digest movies are recorded for each shot.

A digest movie may not be recorded if you shoot a still image
immediately after turning the camera on, choosing [

] mode,

or operating the camera in other ways.

Sounds and vibrations from operating the camera will be recorded
in digest movies.

Digest movie quality is [

] and cannot be changed.

Sounds are not played when you press the shutter button halfway
or trigger the self-timer (= 139).

Digest movies are saved as separate movie files in the following
cases even if they were recorded on the same day in [

] mode.

-

The digest movie file size reaches approximately 4 GB, or the
total recording time reaches approximately 16 minutes and
40 seconds.

-

The digest movie is protected (= 96).

-

Daylight saving time (= 20) or time zone (= 140) settings
are changed.

-

A new folder is created (= 144).

Recorded shutter sounds cannot be modified or erased.

If you prefer to record digest movies without still images, adjust
the setting in advance. Choose MENU (= 29) > [

] tab >

[Digest Type] > [No Stills].

Individual chapters can be edited (= 107).

3) Finish recording.

Press the movie button again to stop

recording. The camera beeps twice as

recording stops.

Recording will stop automatically when

the memory card becomes full.

The flash firing during shots indicates that the camera has
automatically attempted to ensure optimal colors in the main
subject and background (Multi-area White Balance).

Still Images

Movies

You can make a short movie of the day just by shooting still images.

The camera records 2 – 4-second clips of scenes before each shot,

which are later combined in a digest movie.

Clips recorded in this mode may be included in Story Highlights albums

(= 108).

Auto)” (= 32) to compose the shot and

For more impressive digest movies,

aim the camera at subjects about four

seconds before shooting still images.
