Taking Still Pictures with Sound (Synchro Sound Record)
• You can play back sound recorded in Synchro Sound Record
mode in the same way as playing a voice memo. (p.158)
• In Synchro Sound Record mode, the default setting for focus
mode is 3 (Pan Focus). (p.85)
• Sound recording before taking a picture starts immediately when
Synchro Sound Record mode is selected. Ten seconds of sound
before the shutter release button is pressed fully are recorded with
the still picture. Sound prior to this is not recorded.
• The shutter sound, operation sound, and self-timer sound are
muted when the Synchro Sound Record mode is set.
• If you press the shutter release button fully while the camera is recording
sound after taking the picture, the camera immediately switches to
capture status, so the time that sound is recorded may be reduced.
