Shoot.
Follow step 4 in “Shooting (Smart Auto)”

The camera records both a still image
and movie clip. The clip, which ends with
the still image and a shutter sound, forms
a single chapter in the digest movie.
Battery life is shorter in this mode than in

immediately after turning the camera on, choosing
mode, or
operating the camera in other ways.

in digest movies.
Digest movie recording size is [
] for NTSC or
[
] for PAL. This varies depending on the video output
format.
Sounds are not played when you press the shutter button halfway
or trigger the self-timer.
Digest movies are saved as separate movie files in the following
cases even if they were recorded on the same day in
mode.
-
The digest movie file size reaches approximately 4 GB, or the
total recording time reaches approximately 29 minutes and 59
seconds.
-
The digest movie is protected.
-
Daylight saving time, video system, or time zone settings are
changed.
Recorded shutter sounds cannot be modified or erased.
If you prefer to record digest movies without still images, adjust
the setting in advance. Choose [
] menu (
=
23) > [Digest
type] > [No stills].
Individual chapters can be edited (
=
81).
3) Stop recording.
