Recording Mode:
Recording Motion Pictures
This can record full high definition motion pictures compatible with the AVCHD format or
motion pictures recorded in Motion JPEG.
Audio will be recorded in stereo.
The functions available when recording motion pictures differ according to the lens you are
using, and
the operational sound of the lens may be recorded.
Refer to page 14 for details.
Focusing varies depending on the settings of the [FOCUS MODE] and the
[CONTINUOUS AF] in the [MOTION PICTURE] Mode menu.
•
Depending on the recording conditions or lens used, 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] Mode menu set to [OFF], if the sound of
operation bothers you to avoid recording the lens noise.
• When operating the zoom when recording motion pictures, it may take time to come into focus.
