OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS
• Versatile Movie Recording Modes
— Movie mode
Use this mode for normal movie recording (page 106).
— Past Movie mode
This mode uses a 5-second buffer that is continually
updated. Pressing the shutter button starts recording
from five seconds prior to the point the button is
pressed. Use this mode when you want to make sure
you do not miss fast-moving action (page 107).
— Short Movie mode
Each press of the shutter button in this mode records
a short movie that starts before the button is pressed
and ends after the button is pressed (page 108).
— MOVIE BEST SHOT mode
This mode makes camera setup as easy as selecting
the applicable sample scene. Select one of the MOVIE
BEST SHOT scenes and the camera automatically
configures itself with the setup for that scene (page
111).
NOTE
• You can play movie files on your computer using
Windows Media Player 9.
Specifying Movie Image Quality
The image quality setting determines how much the
camera compresses movie images before storing them.
Image quality is expressed as image size in pixels. A
“pixel” is one of the many tiny dots that make up an image.
More pixels (a larger image size) provide finer detail and
higher image quality when a movie is played back.
Before recording a movie, select the image quality setting
that suits your needs.
