General Movie Shooting Cautions

Red <E> Internal Temperature Warning Icon

If the camera’s internal temperature increases due to prolonged movie
shooting or under a high ambient temperature, a red <E> icon will
appear.

The red <E> icon indicates that movie shooting will soon be terminated
automatically. If this happens, you will not be able to shoot again until the
camera’s internal temperature decreases. Turn off the power and let the
camera rest for a while.

Shooting a movie at a high temperature for a prolonged period will cause
the <E> icon to appear earlier. When you are not shooting, always turn
off the camera.

Recording and Image Quality

If the attached lens has an Image Stabilizer and you set the Image
Stabilizer (IS) switch to <1>, the Image Stabilizer will operate at all
times even if you do not press the shutter button halfway. The Image
Stabilizer consumes battery power and may shorten the total movie
shooting time depending on the shooting conditions. If you use a tripod
or if the Image Stabilizer is not necessary, it is recommended to set the
IS switch to <2>.

The camera’s built-in microphones will also pick up the operation sound
during shooting and mechanical sound of the camera. Use a
commercially-available external microphone to reduce these sounds in
the movie.

Do not connect anything other than an external microphone to the
camera’s external microphone IN terminal.

If the brightness changes during autoexposure movie shooting, the
movie may freeze temporarily. In such a case, shoot movies with manual
exposure.

If there is a very bright light source in the image, the bright area may
appear black on the LCD monitor. The movie will be recorded almost
exactly as it appears on the LCD monitor.

In low light, noise or irregular colors may appear in the image. The movie
will be recorded almost exactly as it appears on the LCD monitor.

If you play back a movie with other devices, image or sound quality may
deteriorate or playback may not be possible (even if the devices support
MOV/MP4 format).
