  Under [ z2: ISO speed settings ] (p.126), if you set the [ISO speed 
range ]’s [Maximum ] setting to [25600/H ] in the d, f , or F mode, 
the automatic ISO range will be ex panded to H (equivalent to ISO

Notes for Autoexposure, Shutter-priority AE, and Aperture-priority 
AE
During movie shooting in the A, d , s , f  or F mode,  this camera 
supports the function that turns the Speedlite’s LED light automatically 
in low-light conditions.  For details, refer to the Speedlite’s 
instruction manual.
Using an EX-series Speedlite (Sold Separately) Equipped 
with an LED Light
  You can lock the ex posure (AE lock) by pressing the < A> button 
(except in the  A mode, p.171). After applyi ng AE lock during movie 
shooting, you can cancel it by pressing the < S> button. (AE lock setting 
is retained until you press < S>)
  You can set exposure compen sation by setting the  switch to 
the left and turning the < 5> dial (except in the < A> mode).
  Pressing the shutter bu tton halfway displays th e ISO speed and shutter 
speed at the screen bottom. This is the exposure se tting for taking a still 
photo (p.225). The exposure setting fo r movie shooting is not displayed. 
Note that the exposure se tting for movie shooting ma y differ from that for 
still photo shooting.

You can manually set the shutter speed, aperture, and ISO speed for 
movie shooting. Using manual exposure to shoot movies is for 
advanced users.

 Press the shutter button halfway and 
check the exposure level indicator.
 
To set the shutter  speed, turn the 
 dial. The settable shutter speeds 
depend on the frame rate .
•  6  5  4 : 1/4000 sec. - 1/30 sec.
•  8 7 : 1/4000 sec. - 1/60 sec.

ISO speed during manual-exposure shooting
 With [Auto] ( A), the ISO speed will be set automatically within ISO 
100 - 12800.
  You can set the ISO speed manually within ISO 100 - 12800 in 1/3-
stop increments. Under [ z2: ISO speed settings ], if you set [ISO 
speed range]’s [ Maximum] setting to [ 25600/H], the maximum ISO 
speed for manual ISO speed se tting will be expanded to H 
(equivalent to 25600). Be  aware that when you set [Maximum] to 
[25600], the maximum ISO speed wil l not be expanded and remains 
ISO 12800.
  If [z 3: Highlight tone priority ] is set to [Enable] (p.146), you can 
set the ISO speed within IS O 200 - 12800 (depending on the [ ISO 
speed range] setting).
  Under [ z2: ISO speed settings ], [Auto ISO range ] and [Min. 
shutter spd. ] cannot be set (p.127, 128) for movie shooting.
 Since shooting a movie at ISO 1600 0/20000/25600 may result in much 
noise, it is designated as an ex panded ISO speed (displayed as [ H]).
  If [Minimum ] is set to [ L(50)] and [ Maximum ] to [H1(51200) ] or 
[ H2(102400) ] in [ISO speed range], and you switch from still photo 
shooting to movie shooting, the mi nimum setting for manual ISO range 
will be ISO 100 and the maximum w ill be H (ISO 25600). The ISO speed 
cannot be expanded to IS O 50 or ISO 51200/102400.
  Changing the shutter speed or aperture during  movie shooting is not 
recommended since the ch anges in the exposure will be recorded.
  When shooting a movie of a moving su bject, a shutter speed of 1/30 sec. 
to 1/125 sec. is recommended. The  faster the shutter speed, the less 
smooth the subject’s  movement will look.
  If you change the shutter speed while  shooting under fluorescent or LED 
lighting, image flicke r may be recorded.
 If ISO Auto is set,  you can press the < A> button to lock the ISO speed.
  When you press the  button and then recomp ose the picture, you 
can see the exposure level differen ce on the exposure level indicator 
(p.22, 225) comp ared to when you first press the < A> button.
  By pressing the < B> button, you can display the histogram.

Notes on Movie Shooting
 The camera cannot autofocus co ntinuously like a camcorder.
  During movie shooting, do not point  the lens toward the sun. The sun’s 
heat can damage the camera ’s internal components.
  Under [5 1: Record func+card/folder sel. ], even if [Record func.] is set 
to [ Rec. to multiple ] (p.116), the movie cannot  be recorded to both the 
CF card < f> and SD card < g>. If [ Rec. separately ] or [Rec. to 
multiple ] is set, the movie will be record ed to the card which has been 
set for [ Playback ].
  If  is set and the ISO  speed or aperture changes during movie 
shooting, the white bala nce may also change.
 
If you shoot a movie under  fluorescent or LED lighting, the movie may flicker. Zooming the lens during movie shoot ing is not recommended. Zooming 
the lens can cause  changes in the exposure re gardless of whether the 
lens’ maximum aperture  changes or not. Exposure changes may be 
recorded as a result.
  Cautions for movie shooting  are on pages 241 and 242.
  If necessary, also read the Live  View shooting cautions on pages 
215 and 216.
  Movie-related settings are under the [z 4] and [ z5] tabs (p.239). In the 
 mode, they are under the [ z2] and [ z3] tabs.
  A movie file is recorded  each time you shoot a movie. If the file size 
exceeds 4 GB, a new f ile will be created.
  The movie image’s field of view is  approx. 100% (with movie recording 
size set to [A ]).
  You can also focus the im age by pressing the  button.
  To focus during movie shooting, press the < p> button. You cannot 
focus by pressing the shutter button.

shutter button completely to start  or stop the movie shooting (p.240).
 Monaural sound is recorded by the  camera’s built-in microphone (p.218).
  By connecting a stereo  microphone (commercially available) equipped 
with a 3.5 mm mini plug to the camera ’s external microphone IN terminal 
(p.19), stereo sound re cording is possible.
  By connecting stereo headphones  (commercially available) equipped 
with a 3.5 mm mini plug to the came ra’s headphone terminal (p.19), you 
can listen to the soun d during movie shooting.

shooting will resume automatically  when the Live View image is 
displayed.
  The movie and still photo will be recorded as separate files on the 
card.
  If [Record func.] (p.116) is set to [Standard ] or [Auto switch card ], 
the movies and still photos will be recorded to the same card. If 
[Rec. separately] or [Rec. to multiple ] is set, the movies will be 
recorded to the card set for [ Playback]. The still photos will be 
recorded at the image-recording quality set for the respective card.
