Warnings
Do not hold the camera in the same position for long periods of time.
Even if the camera does not feel too hot, prolonged contact with the same
body part may cause skin redness or blistering due to low-temperature contact
burns. Using a tripod is recommended when using the camera in very hot
places or for people with circulation problems or poor skin sensation.
Notes for Movie Shooting
Each time you shoot a movie, a new movie file is created on the card.
The movie’s field of view coverage for shooting Full HD and HD movies
is approx. 100%.
You can also focus by pressing the <p> button.
With [ /k] or [q/k] selected under [z4: V btn function], you
can press the shutter button completely to start or stop the movie
shooting (p.378, under the [z2] tab in Basic Zone modes).
Stereo sound is recorded by the camera’s built-in microphones (p.326).
If you connect the Directional Stereo Microphone DM-E1 (sold
separately) to the camera’s external microphone IN terminal (p.29), the
external microphone is given the priority (p.347).
Most external microphones equipped with a 3.5 mm diameter mini plug
can be used.
With a fully-charged Battery Pack LP-E6N, the possible movie shooting
time will be as follows: approx. 2 hr. 40 min. at room temperatures (23°C
/ 73°F) and approx. 2 hr. 20 min. at low temperatures (0°C / 32°F) (with
[z1: Movie rec. size]: L654X and [z4: Movie Servo
AF: Disable] set).
The focus preset function can be used for movie shooting when using a
(super) telephoto lens equipped with the focus preset mode, released in
and after the second half of 2011.
The color sampling recorded will be YCbCr 4:2:0 (8-bit), and the color
matrix recorded will be Rec. ITU-R BT.709.
