Recording starts. You can continue recording until the built-in memory
or the SD Memory Card is full, or the size of the recorded movie
reaches 2 GB.
5
Press the shutter release button fully.
Recording stops.
If you keep the shutter release button pressed for more than one second,
recording will continue as long as you keep the button pressed. Shooting
stops when you take your finger off the shutter release button.
You can choose from four recorded pixels settings for movies: G, H,
I and J.
The more pixels there are, the clearer the details and the bigger the file
size. 30fps will give smoother movies than 15fps, but file size will
increase.
• The flash does not discharge in C (Movie) mode.
• The focus mode can be changed before recording starts.
• You can use the optical zoom only before recording, while the digital
zoom is available both before and during recording.
• When the shooting mode is set to C (Movie), Face Detection is
automatically set to on. You can select Smile Capture or Face
Detection Off by pressing the I button before you start recording a
movie (p.61). When the Smile Capture function is activated, movie
recording starts automatically when the camera detects the subject's
smile. However, depending on the condition of the detected faces,
movie recording may not start automatically because the Smile
Capture function may not work. In this case, press the shutter release
button to start movie recording.
