7. Recording Motion Pictures
Applicable modes:
Focusing changes depending on the Focus Mode setting (P89) and the [Continuous AF]
setting in the [Motion Picture] menu.
¢ If Creative Video Mode is active, focusing is continuously performed even when the camera
is in recording standby mode.
• When the focus mode is set to [AFS], [AFF] or [AFC], if you press the shutter button halfway
while recording a motion picture, the camera will re-adjust the focus.
• Depending on the recording conditions, operational sound may be recorded when the Auto
Focus is operated while recording a motion picture.
It is recommended to record with [Continuous AF] in the [Motion Picture] menu set to [OFF], if
the sound of operation bothers you to avoid recording the lens noise.
• When operating the zoom while recording motion pictures, it may take time to come into focus.
