Notes on continuous movie recording

• High-quality movie recording and high-speed continuous shooting

require large amounts of power. Therefore, if you continue to shoot, the
temperature inside the camera will rise, especially that of the image
sensor. In such cases, the camera will turn off automatically because
the surface of the camera is heated to a high temperature or the high
temperature affects the quality of the images or the internal mechanism
of the camera.

• The duration of time available for continuous movie recording when

the camera records with the default settings after the power has been
turned off for a while is as follows. The values indicate the continuous
time from when the camera starts recording until the camera stops
recording.

• The duration of time available for movie recording varies with the

temperature, file format/record setting for movies, Wi-Fi network
environment, or condition of the camera before you start recording. If
you frequently recompose or shoot images after the power is turned
on, the temperature inside the camera will rise and the recording time
available will be shorter.

• When

is indicated, the temperature of the camera is too high.

• If the camera stops movie recording due to a high temperature, leave

it for some time with the power turned off. Start recording after the
temperature inside the camera drops fully.

• If you observe the following points, you will be able to record movies for

longer periods of time.

– Keep the camera out of direct sunlight.

– Turn the camera off when it is not being used.

 File Format] is set to [AVCHD], the file size of movies is limited

to approx. 2 GB. If the movie file size reaches approx. 2 GB during
recording, a new movie file will be created automatically.

• When [

 File Format] is set to [MP4], the file size of movies is limited

to approx. 4 GB. If the movie file size reaches approx. 4 GB during
