(p. 110).
* Even if the size of the movie data has not reached 1 GB, recording will stop
when a shooting time of 1 hour has elapsed. Depending on the volume and
data writing speed of the memory card, recording will stop after 1 hour of
continuous recording even if the recorded data volume has not reached
1GB.
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. 28).
• Maximum Size: 1 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 the recording pixels are few and 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
