Notes About Recorded Movies
•
There may be some degradation in image quality when digital zoom is used.
•
The sounds of zoom control operation, zoom, autofocus lens drive movement,
movie vibration reduction, and aperture operation when brightness changes may
be recorded.
•
The following phenomena may be seen in the monitor while recording movies.
These phenomena are saved in the recorded movies.
- Banding may occur in images under fluorescent, mercury-vapor, or sodium-
vapor lighting.
- Subjects that move quickly from one side of the frame to the other, such as a
moving train or car, may appear skewed.
- The entire movie image may be skewed when the camera is panned.
- Lighting or other bright areas may leave residual images when the camera is
moved.
•
Depending on the distance to the subject or the amount of zoom applied, colored
stripes may appear on subjects with repeating patterns (fabrics, lattice windows,
etc.) during movie recording and playback. This occurs when the pattern in the
subject and the layout of the image sensor interfere with each other; it is not a
malfunction.

Notes About Vibration Reduction During Movie Recording
•
When Movie VR (
A
106) in the movie menu is set to On (hybrid) , the angle of
view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) becomes narrower during movie recording.
•
When using a tripod to stabilize the camera during shooting, set Movie VR to Off
to prevent potential errors caused by this function.

Notes About Autofocus for Movie Recording
Autofocus may not perform as expected (
A
54). Should this occur, try the following:
1. Set AF area mode to Center and Autofocus mode to Single AF (default
setting) in the movie menu before starting movie recording.
2. Frame another subject (positioned at the same distance from the camera as the
intended subject) in the center of the frame, press the

button to start recording, and modify the composition.
