A HDMI If the camera is connected to an HDMI device (0 215), the view through the lens will appear both in the camera monitor and on the HDMI device. Indicators in the monitor and on the HDMI device can be hidden or displayed using the R button. To use live view when the camera is connected to an HDMI-CEC device, select Off for HDMI > Device control in the setup menu (0 216). If 1920×1080; 60i, 1920×1080; 50i, 1280× 720; 60p, or 1280×720; 50p is selected for Frame size/frame rate, the monitor will turn off when the camera is connected to an HDMI video device. A Remote Movie Recording If Record movies is selected for Custom Setting g4 (Assign shutter button, 0 260), the shutter-release buttons on optional remote cords or optional wireless remote controllers (0 309, 310) can be used to start movie live view and to start and end movie recording. D Recording Movies Flicker, banding, or distortion may be visible in the monitor and in the final movie under fluorescent, mercury vapor, or sodium lamps or if the camera is panned horizontally or an object moves at high speed through frame (for information on reducing flicker and banding, see Flicker reduction, 0 264). Jagged edges, color fringing, moiré, and bright spots may also appear. Bright bands may appear in some areas of the frame with flashing signs and other intermittent light sources or if the subject is briefly illuminated by a flash or other bright, momentary light source. When recording movies, avoid pointing the camera at the sun or other strong light sources. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to the camera's internal circuitry. Note that noise (randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, or lines) and unexpected colors may appear if you zoom in on the view through the lens (0 159) during movie live view. The camera can record both video and sound; do not cover the microphone during recording. Note that the built-in microphone may record lens noise during autofocus and vibration reduction. Flash lighting can not be used during movie live view. Recording ends automatically if the lens is removed or the mode dial is rotated. Live view may end automatically to prevent damage to the camera's internal circuits; exit live view when the camera is not in use. Note that the temperature of the camera's internal circuits may rise and noise (bright spots, randomly-spaced bright pixels, or fog) may be displayed in the following instances (the camera may also become noticeably warm, but this y does not indicate a malfunction): • The ambient temperature is high • The camera has been used for extended periods in live view or to record movies • The camera has been used in continuous release mode for extended periods If live view does not start when you attempt to start live view or movie recording, wait for the internal circuits to cool and then try again. 168
