4. Use [8] and [2] to select “Movie Quality” and then press [6].
5. Use [8] and [2] to select the frame rate (recording speed) you want
and then press [SET].
A fast frame rate (such as 1000 fps) will result in a smaller image size.
6. Record the movie the same way as you would a normal movie (page
65).
Press [0] (Movie) to start and stop recording.
• During High Speed Movie recording (HS120, HS240, HS480, HS1000), focus
is fixed at the position where it was when recording started. To focus an image,
half-press the shutter button for Auto Focus or focus manually before you press
[0] (Movie) to start recording.
• Continuous AF is operational when recording at 30 fps with “HS30-120” or
“HS30-240”. However, focus becomes fixed whenever you switch to 120 fps or
240 fps.
• When “HS30-120” or “HS30-240” is selected as the frame rate, recording
always starts with a frame rate of 30 fps. You can switch the frame rate
between 30 fps and 120 fps or between 30 fps and 240 fps only while recording
is in progress. Press [4], [6], or [SET] to switch speeds. Audio is recorded
only while shooting at a 30 fps.
