Notes on Movies
Depending on the make of memory card used, recording may end before the memory card
is full (Q 101). During recording with E3200, do not touch the built-in microphone. To pre-
vent the sound of the camera focusing from interfering with recording, select a focus mode
of Single AF.
The progress indicator stops at 999s. Recording can continue past this point if enough mem-
ory is available on the memory card.

Movies are recorded as Quick Time movie files with the extension ".MOV" and can be
