Although the digest movie recorded on a particular day constitutes a single file,

a single clip (chapter) is created with each shot.

Digest movies are saved as separate movie files in the following cases even if

they were recorded on the same day in [

] mode.

-

If the digest movie file size reaches approximately 4 GB or the total recording

time reaches approximately 13 minutes and 20 seconds

-

If the digest movie is protected (

=

111

)

-

If the daylight saving time (

=

16

) or time zone (

=

150

) settings have

been changed

-

If a new folder is created (

=

154

)

Digest Movie Playback

You can play digest movies either by viewing still images shot in [ ] mode

on the same day as the movies or by specifying the date of movies to play

(

=

104

).

Still Images/Movies

If the camera is turned on while the <

l> button is held down,

the camera will no longer sound. To activate sounds again, press

the <

n> button and choose [Mute] on the [3] tab, and then

press the <

q> buttons to choose [Off].

The camera makes a slight noise if shaken, but this is the sound of

the lens moving and does not indicate mechanical damage.

Shooting in Hybrid Auto Mode

You can make a short movie of the day (digest movie). Just by shooting

still images, the camera will automatically record a movie clip of the scene

immediately before each shot.

To beautifully capture a digest movie,

which is created by automatically

recording about 2 – 4 seconds of the

scene before each shot, aim the camera

shooting a still image.

Some camera sounds will be muted.

Sounds are not played when you press

the shutter button halfway, or trigger the

self-timer (

).

Battery life is shorter in this mode than in [

] mode, because

digest movies are recorded for each shot.

A digest movie may not be recorded if you shoot a still image

immediately after turning the camera on, choosing [ ] mode, or

operating the camera in other ways.

Camera operating sounds will be recorded in digest movies.
