When shooting movies, use a large-capacity card with a reading/writing
speed (required card performance) shown in the table or higher than
the standard specification. Test the card by taking a few movies in the
desired quality (p.311) and make sure the card can properly record the
movie.

Even with a high-speed CF card, only for an extremely short period
of time can be recorded at one time (a maximum of approx. 10 sec.).

If you use a slow-writing card when shooting movies, the movie may not
be recorded properly. Also, if you play back a movie on a card with a
slow reading speed, the movie may not play back properly.

To check the card’s reading/writing speed, refer to the card
manufacturer’s Web site.
