k Shooting Movies Notes on Movie Shooting Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun on a sunny day or an intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the camera's internal components. If is set, you should not change the ISO speed or aperture during movie shooting because it may also change the white balance. If you shoot a movie under fluorescent or LED lighting, the movie may flicker. Shooting a few test movies is recommended where you will perform zooming during movie shooting. Zooming during movie shooting may result in recording of changes in exposure or mechanical sound of the lens, or images may be out of focus. You cannot magnify the image during movie shooting. Be careful not to cover the microphones (p.174) with your finger, etc. Cautions for movie shooting are on pages 200 and 201. If necessary, also read the Live View shooting cautions on pages 171 and 172. Movie-related settings are under the [Z1] and [Z2] tabs (p.196). A movie file is recorded each time you shoot a movie. If the file size exceeds 4 GB, a new file will be automatically created. The movie image's field of view is approx. 100% (with movie recording size set to [A]). The sound will be recorded in stereo by the camera's built-in microphones (p.174). Stereo sound recording is also possible by connecting the Directional Stereo Microphone DM-E1 (sold separately) to the camera's external microphone IN terminal (p.20) as the external microphone is given the priority. You can use Remote Controller RC-6 (sold separately, p.307) to start and stop the movie shooting if the drive mode is . Set the shooting timing switch to (2-sec. delay), then press the transmit button. If the switch is set to (immediate shooting), still photo shooting will take effect. With a fully-charged Battery Pack LP-E8, the total movie shooting time will be as follows: approx. 1 hr. 40 min. at room temperature (23°C/73°F), and approx. 1 hr. 20 min. at low temperature (0°C/32°F). The focus preset function is possible for movie shooting only when using a (super) telephoto lens equipped with the focus preset mode marketed since the second half of 2011. 180
