When movie shooting starts, the movie shooting remaining time will
change to the elapsed time.
Cautions for Movie Shooting
Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun
or an intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image
sensor or the camera’s internal components.
If you shoot something that has fine detail, moire or false colors may result.
Even if [
Record func.
] is set to [
Rec. to multiple
] under [
5
1: Record
func+card/folder sel.
] (p.153), the movie cannot be recorded to both the
CF card [
f
] and CFast card [
g
]. If [
Rec. separately
] or [
Rec. to multiple
]
is set, the movie will be recorded to the card which is set for [
Playback
].
If <
Q
> or <
Q
w
> is set and the ISO speed or aperture changes during
movie shooting, the white balance may also change.
If you shoot a movie under fluorescent or LED lighting, the movie image
may flicker.
If you perform AF with a USM lens during movie shooting in low light, horizontal
banding noise may be recorded in the movie. The same type of noise may occur
if you focus manually with certain lenses equipped with an electronic focus ring.
Shooting a few test movies is recommended if you intend to perform
zooming during movie shooting. Zooming during movie shooting may
result in recording of changes in exposure or mechanical sound of the
lens, or images may be out of focus.
During movie shooting, if you perform AF, any of the following may occur:
The focus is temporarily greatly thrown off, changes in movie brightness is
recorded, the movie recording stops momentarily, and the mechanical
sound of the lens is recorded.
During movie shooting, you cannot magnify the image even if you press
the <
u
> button.
Be careful not to cover the built-in microphone (p.296) with your fingers, etc.
If you connect or disconnect the HDMI cable during movie shooting, the
movie shooting will end.
