Notes on Movie Shooting
Recording and Image Quality
 At [ 1920x1080 ], the recorded frame rate  is slower, so fast-moving 
subjects or scenes ma y look a little jerky.
  If a single movie’s file  size reaches 4 GB, the movie shooting will stop 
automatically. To start movie  shooting again, press the  button. (A 
new movie file starts being recorded.)
  If the attached lens has an Image Stabilizer, the Image Stabilizer will 
operate at all times even  if you do not press the shutter button halfway. 
The Image Stabilizer may cause the  total movie shooting time or the 
number of possible shots to decrease . If you use a tripod or if the Image 
Stabilizer is not nece ssary, you should set the IS switch to < 2>.
  The camera’s built-in microphone will  also pick up camera operation 
sounds. If you do not wa nt to record any sound, set the sound recording 
to [ Off ].
  Autofocusing during movie shooting  is not recommended since it might 
momentarily throw the focus way off or  change the exposure. Even if the 
AF mode has be en set to [Quick mode], it will switch to the Live mode 
during movie shooting.
  If the movie shooting is not possible  due to the insufficient remaining 
capacity of the card, the movie re cording size and movie shooting 
remaining time (p.126) wi ll be displayed in red.
  If you use a card having a slow  writing speed, the five-level 
indicator might appear on the  right of the screen during 
movie shooting. It indicates ho w much data has not yet been 
written to the card (remaining ca pacity of the internal buffer 
memory). The slower the card, the faster the indicator will 
climb upward. If the indicator  becomes full, movie shooting 
will stop automatically.
If the card has a fast writing sp eed, the indicator will either 
not appear or the level (if disp layed) will hardly go upward. 
First, shoot a few test mo vies to see if the card can write fast enough.
If you take still photos  during the movie shooti ng, the movie shooting 
might stop. If the  still image recording quality  has been set low, it might 
be improved.
  During movie shooting mode, certain  Custom Function settings will be 
disabled (p.183).

Notes on Movie Shooting
Camera’s internal temperature increase and image degradation
 If you continue to shoot movies fo r a prolonged period, the camera’s 
internal temperature will  increase. This can degr ade the image quality. 
While not shooting, turn off the power.
  If you shoot under direct  sunlight or high-temperature conditions, the 
 icon (high internal  temperature warning)  may appear on the 
screen. If you keep  shooting a movie with the  warning icon displayed, the 
image quality might degrad e. You should turn off the power and allow the 
camera to rest for a while.
  If the < E> icon is displayed and you ke ep shooting movies until the 
camera’s internal temper ature increases further, the movie shooting will 
stop automatically. If this happens,  you will not be able to shoot again 
until the camera’s inte rnal temperature decrea ses. Turn off the power 
and let the camera rest for a while.
Playback and TV connection
  If the brightness change s during movie shooting,  that part might freeze 
momentarily.
  If you connect the  camera to a TV set with an HDMI cable (p.157) and 
shoot a movie in [ 1920x1080] or [1280x720 ], the movie being shot will 
be displayed at a small size on the TV . However, the actual movie will be 
properly recorded at the movi e recording size that was set.
  If you connect the  camera to a TV set (p.156 -157) and shoot a movie, 
the TV will not output any sound  during the shooting. However, the 
sound will be p roperly recorded.
