• CMOS image sensors of the type used in the camera generate a so-called “rolling
shutter” effect that can cause distortion in pictures of moving objects. This distortion is
a phenomenon that occurs in pictures of fast-moving subjects or if the camera is moved
during shooting. It is particularly noticeable in pictures taken at long focal lengths.
• Movies over 4 GB in size are recorded over multiple fi les (depending on shooting
conditions, the camera may start recording to a new fi le before the 4 GB limit is reached).
The fi les can be played back as a single movie. g “Viewing Movies over 4 GB in Size”
(P. 130)
• When recording movies, use an SD card that supports an SD speed class of 10 or higher.
• A UHS-II or UHS-I card with a UHS speed class of 3 or better is required when:
a movie resolution of [4K] or [C4K] is selected in the [ n K ] menu or a bit rate of [A-I]
(All-Intra) is selected in the [ n K ] menu
• When the camera is used continuously for extended periods, the temperature of the
image sensor will rise and noise and color splotches may be visible in the display.
Should this occur, turn the camera off and wait for it to cool. Noise and color splotches
are particularly likely to occur at high ISO sensitivities. If the temperature of the sensor
increases further, the camera will turn off automatically.
