Notes
• Focus is set when recording begins; exposure
and white balance are adjusted automatically
throughout recording. The color and brightness
of the image may vary from that displayed before
recording begins.
• Vertical or horizontal streaks may appear in movies
containing very bright subjects. This is normal and
does not indicate a malfunction.

Recording Movies
Shoot short movies at 30 frames per second. Sound is recorded via the built-in microphone; do not
cover the microphone during recording.
