Recording and Playing Back Movies
B Notes About Vibration Reduction When Recording Movies
• When Movie VR in the movie menu (A 69) is set to On (hybrid), the angle of view (i.e., the area
visible in the frame) becomes narrower when recording movies.
• When using a tripod to stabilize the camera during shooting, set Movie VR to Off to prevent
potential errors caused by this function.
B Camera Temperature
• The camera may become warm when shooting movies for an extended period of time or when
the camera is used in a hot area.
• If the inside of the camera becomes extremely hot when recording movies, the camera will
automatically stop recording.
The amount of time remaining until the camera stops recording (B10s) is displayed.
After the camera stops recording, it turns itself off.
Leave the camera off until the inside of the camera has cooled.
B Notes About Autofocus
Autofocus may not perform as expected (A 60). Should this occur, try the following:
1. Set AF area mode in the movie menu to Center before starting movie recording.
2. Set Autofocus mode in the movie menu to Single AF (default setting).
3. Frame another subject—positioned at the same distance from the camera as the intended
subject—in the center of the frame, press the b (e movie-record) button to start recording, and
then modify the composition.
