storage capacity of the memory card and the speed at which the data is
written, recording may stop before reaching 4 GB or 1 hour.
Movie Shooting
Shooting Mode
Standard
You can select the recording pixels and frame rate and record until
the memory card is full (when a super high-speed memory card is
used, such as the recommended SDC-512MSH).
The digital zoom can be used while shooting in this mode (p. 29).
• Maximum Size: 4 GB/movie*
Fast Frame Rate
Use this mode to record fast moving subjects, such as in sports
photography.
• Maximum Clip Length: 1 minute
Compact
Since there are few recording pixels and also the data size is
small, this mode is convenient for sending movies as e-mail
attachments or when the memory card capacity is low.
• Maximum Clip Length: 3 minutes
