Ninety seconds of audio can be recorded without an image. The audio-recording drive
mode is selected in the basic section of the recording-mode menu (p. 28). When the
function is active, the live view is replaced with a blue screen.
Approximately 842 seconds of audio can be stored on one 8MB memory card. Audio is
recorded at approximately 8KB/s
To begin recording, press the shutter-release button
(1). A bar graph (2) will display the amount of
recorded time. The recording will stop when the
shutter-release button is pressed again or the
ninety-second limit has elapsed.
When making audio recordings, be careful not to
touch or cover the microphone. The quality of the
recording is proportional to the subject to
microphone distance. For best results, hold the
camera approximately 20cm (8in) from your mouth.
