Recording movies
This function is for recording movies. The sound is automatically recorded
when recording a movie.
Although the camera maintains the correct exposure during movie
recording even if your subject moves, the focus and zoom will be locked
so it will be out of focus if the distance to the subject is changed. These
movies can be played back on the camera.

again or the space in the internal memory or card is exhausted.

card, create space by erasing the movie or downloading it to a computer.
