Taking Videos

Use Video mode

to take videos and to customize video-taking settings.

Before you take a video, make sure your picture storage location is set the way
you want it (see

page 12

).

NOTE: Flash is not available in Video mode. Change Optical Zoom before (but

not during) video recording. Sound is captured by the microphone, but
is played back only when the video is transferred to a computer or when
the camera is connected to a television (see

page 48

).
