Shooting in Hybrid Auto Mode You can make a short movie of the day (digest movie). Just by shooting still images, the camera will automatically record a movie clip of the scene immediately before each shot. 1 Enter [ ] mode. zzSet the mode dial to [ ]. XXThe flash automatically rises. 2 Shoot. zzFollow steps 3 - 4 in "Shooting (Smart Auto)" (=47) to shoot a still image. zzTo beautifully capture a digest movie, which is created by automatically recording about 2 - 4 seconds of the scene before each shot, aim the camera at the subject about four seconds before shooting a still image. zzSome camera sounds will be muted. Sounds are not played when you press the shutter button halfway, or trigger the self-timer (=149). • 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. • Camera operating sounds will be recorded in digest movies. • Although the digest movie recorded on a particular day constitutes a single file, a single clip (chapter) is created with each shot. • Digest movies are saved as separate movie files in the following cases even if they were recorded on the same day in [ ] mode. - If the digest movie file size reaches approximately 4 GB or the total recording time reaches approximately 13 minutes and 20 seconds - If the digest movie is protected (=111) - If the daylight saving time (=16) or time zone (=150) settings have been changed - If a new folder is created (=154) Digest Movie Playback You can play digest movies either by viewing still images shot in [ ] mode on the same day as the movies or by specifying the date of movies to play (= 104). Still Images/Movies • If the camera is turned on while the button is held down, the camera will no longer sound. To activate sounds again, press the button and choose [Mute] on the [3] tab, and then press the buttons to choose [Off]. • The camera makes a slight noise if shaken, but this is the sound of the lens moving and does not indicate mechanical damage.
