Portrait-oriented (“tall”) pictures taken at an image mode setting of p 3968×2232 must 
be rotated into landscape orientation and enlarged before they can be cropped (A106).
If portrait-oriented (“tall”) pictures taken at an image mode setting other than p

•Memory cards with an SD Speed Class rating of 6 or faster are recommended when recording 
movies (A170). Movie recording may stop unexpectedly when memory cards with a lower 
Speed Class ratings are used.
•The camera focuses when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, and the focus remains 
locked while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. Focus is locked while recording.
•Digital zoom deteriorates picture quality. When recording movies, the digital zoom can magnify 
the image up to 2× the maximum optical zoom ratio.
•In some cases, movie recordings may capture the sounds of the camera, such as the sound of the 
lens movement when zooming, the vibration reduction function, or the aperture control when 
the brightness changes.
•Smear (A168) visible in the monitor with movie recording will be recorded with movies. 
Avoiding bright objects such as the sun, reflections of the sun, and electric lights when recording 
movies is recommended.
•When recording or playing back movies, colored stripes (interference patterns or moiré) may 
appear on subjects that have a regular, repeating grid, such as pattern of weave in cloths or 
windows in a building, depending on the shooting distance or zoom ratio. This phenomenon 
occurs when the subject’s pattern interferes with the camera sensor grid, and it does not indicate 
a malfunction.
BNote on Saving Movies
After a movie has been recorded, it is not fully saved to the internal memory or memory card until 
monitor display returns to the shooting display. Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card 
slot cover before movies have been fully saved. Removing the memory card while movies are being 
saved could result in loss of data or in damage to the camera or card.

A Movie Options
Select the desired movie option to record. Larger image sizes and faster movie 
bitrates mean greater image quality and larger movie file sizes.
•The movie bitrate is the volume of movie data recorded per second. As a 
variable bitrate (VBR) system has been adopted, the movie recording rate varies 
automatically according to the subject so that more data is recorded per 
second for movies containing frequently moving subjects, thus increasing 
movie file size.
•The frame rate is approximately 30 frames per second in any options.
CMovie Options and Maximum Movie Length
All figures are approximate. The maximum recording time may vary by make of memory card and 
the bitrates at which the movie was recorded.
* The maximum recording time for a single movie is 29 minutes. The maximum movie length 
displayed during recording is 29 minutes, even when there is enough free space on the 
memory card for a longer movie.
