Notes on Movie Shooting
Do not hold the camera in the same position for long periods of time.
Even if the camera does not feel too hot, prolonged contact with the same
body part may cause skin redness, blistering or low-temperature contact
burns. The use of a tripod is recommended for people with circulation
problems or very sensitive skin, or when using the camera in very hot
places.
Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun
on a sunny day or an intense artificial light source. Doing so may
damage the image sensor or the camera’s internal components.
If <
Q
> is set and the ISO speed or aperture changes during movie
shooting, the white balance may also change.
If you shoot a movie under fluorescent or LED lighting, the movie may
flicker.
Zooming the lens during movie shooting is not recommended. Zooming
the lens can cause changes in the exposure regardless of whether the
lens’s maximum aperture changes or not. Exposure changes may be
recorded as a result.
Pressing the <
u
> button during movie shooting will not magnify the
image.
Be careful not to cover the microphone (p.154) with your finger, etc.
Cautions for movie shooting are on pages 177 and 178.
If necessary, also read the Live View shooting cautions on pages
151 and 152.
Movie-related settings are under the [
Z
1 ], [
Z

A movie file is recorded each time you shoot a movie.
The movie image’s field of view is approx. 100% (with movie recording
size set to [
A

Monaural sound is recorded by the camera’s built-in microphone (p.154).
