Movie Recording Precautions • You cannot use flash while shooting a movie. • The camera also records audio. Note the following points when shooting a movie. - Take care that the microphone is not blocked by your fingers, etc. - Good results are not possible when the camera is too far away from what you are trying to record. - Operating camera buttons while shooting can cause button noise to be picked up in the audio. Microphone • Optical zoom is disabled while shooting a movie. Digital zoom only is available while shooting a movie. If you want to use a particular optical zoom setting, make sure you select it before you press the shutter button to start movie recording (page 69). • The effects of camera movement in an image become more pronounced when you shoot close up or a large zoom factor. Because of this, use of a tripod is recommended under these conditions. • When the subject is outside the camera's focus range, focusing is not possible and the image will be out of focus. • The angle of view for movies is less than that for snapshots. • Shooting a very bright subject can cause a vertical band to appear in the monitor screen image. This does not indicate malfunction. The band will be recorded in the case of a movie. • Certain types of memory cards take longer to record data, which can cause movie frames to be dropped. " " and " " flash on the monitor screen during recording to let you know when a frame has been dropped. Use of a memory card with a maximum transfer speed of at least 10MB per second is recommended. 86 SHOOTING A MOVIE
