Recording Movies

IMPORTANT!

• Spending a long time using movie recording will cause the camera to become

slightly warm to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

• Shooting movies for long periods in areas where temperature is relatively high can

cause digital noise (dots of light) to appear in the movie image. A rise in the
camera’s internal temperature also may force movie recording to stop
automatically. If this happens, stop recording and allow the camera to cool down,
which should cause normal operation to resume.

• Shooting a movie using the camera’s built-in memory will cause movie frames to

be dropped. Always use a high speed memory card (not built-in memory) for movie
recording.

• Use of certain types of memory cards slows down data transfer and increases the

time it takes to record movie data, which can result in movie frames being dropped.
The Y indicator on the monitor screen turns yellow to indicate that frames are
being dropped. In order to avoid problems such as these, use of an Ultra High
Speed Type SD memory card is recommended. Note, however that CASIO makes
no guarantees about the operation of any Ultra High Speed Type SD memory card
used with this camera.

NOTE

• Except for High Speed Movie, zoom operations are supported during movie

recording (page 46). Zoom is disabled during high speed movie recording. To use
optical zoom for high speed movie recording, perform the zoom operation before
you press [0] (Movie) to start recording.

• Both Single SR Zoom (page 49) and Multi SR Zoom (page 76) are disabled during

movie recording.

• The effects of camera movement in an image become more pronounced when you

shoot close up or with a large zoom factor. Because of this, use of a tripod is
recommended under these conditions.

• Except for High Speed Movie, Continuous AF (page 94) is performed during movie

recording while “Auto Focus” or “Macro” is selected for the “Focus” setting.

• During High Speed Movie recording (HS120, HS240, HS480), focus is fixed at the

position where it was when recording started. To focus an image, half-press the
shutter button for Auto Focus or focus manually before you press [0] (Movie) to
start recording.

• Continuous AF is operational when recording at 30 fps with “HS30-120” or

“HS30-240”. However, focus becomes fixed whenever you switch to 120 fps or
240 fps.

• Face Detection is disabled during movie (FHD, STD, high speed) recording.
• The following BEST SHOT scenes are always shot using high speed movie. The

current “» Quality” setting is ignored.
