H.264 (MPEG-4 part10/AVC) is the latest video coding format established
in 2003 collaboratively by ISO-IEC and ITU-T. Since this format uses a high
compression rate, more data can be saved in less memory space.
If you have the image stabilizer option on when shooting a movie, the
camera may record the image stabilizer sound.
If you remove the camera lens while recording a movie, the recording will be
interrupted. Do not change the lens while recording.
If you change the shooting angle of the camera suddenly while shooting a
movie, the camera may not be able to record images accurately. Use a tripod
to minimize camera shake.
The camera supports only the Multi AF function when recording a video. You
cannot use any other focus area setting functions.
When the size of a movie file exceeds 4 GB, the camera automatically stops
recording even if the maximum recording time (29 minutes and 59 seconds)
has not been reached.
If you use a slow writing memory card, the recording of your movie can
be interrupted because the card cannot process data at the rate the video
is being shot. If this occurs, replace the card with a faster memory card or
reduce the video size (for example, from 1280X720 to 640X480).
When formatting a memory card, always format using the camera. If you
format on another camera or a PC, you can lose files on the card or cause a
change in the capacity of the card.
While recording a video in the same ISO sensitivity, the screen may be darker
than taking a photo. Adjust the ISO sensitivity.
When you record a video in Program, Aperture Priority, or Shutter Priority
mode, ISO is automatically set to Auto.
Recording a video
In Shooting mode, you can record Full HD videos (1920X1080) by pressing
(Video recording). The camera lets you record a video up to 29 minutes
and 59 seconds in length at 30 fps, and saves the files in MP4 (H.264)
format. The sound is recorded via the camera's microphone.
Select Fader to fade in or out a scene. You can also select Voice or other
options to set recording options. (p. 101)
