When a motion picture is recorded, the finished recording will be approximately 1/8th of the actual
recorded time period. (If you record a motion picture for 8 minutes, the resulting motion picture
recording time will be approximately 1 minute.) The recordable time displayed on the camera is
approx. 8 times of the actual recording time. When the Recording mode is changed, be sure to
check the recordable time.
If you stop recording motion pictures too soon, the camera may continue recording until a certain
time. Hold the camera until the camera stops recording.
If [MF] is selected for the focus mode, move the focusing area to the position at which the focus
has been adjusted.
