A 0 icon (0 49) indicates that movies can not be recorded.

Before Recording
Set aperture before recording in mode A or M. Note that movies
may be over- or under-exposed at some aperture settings.
Before shooting, check the brightness of the scene in the
monitor; if the picture is too bright or too dark, end live view
and adjust aperture as necessary.

Using an External Microphone
The built-in microphone may record lens noise during autofocus or vibration
reduction. This can be prevented by using a commercially-available external
microphone with a stereo mini-pin jack (3.5 mm diameter). External microphones can
also be used to record in stereo.
