Recording Movies
With this feature, the camera pre-records up to five seconds of whatever is happening
in front of the lens in a buffer that is continually updated. Pressing [
0
] saves the
pre-recorded action (buffer contents) followed by real-time recording. Real-time
recording continues until you stop it. Prerecord Movie can be used when shooting a
standard (STD) movie, a high-definition (HD) movie, or a high speed (HS) movie.
• When using Prerecord Movie in combination with high speed movie, the buffer will
store two seconds of pre-recording instead of the usual five.
