• The sound of touch operations and button operations may be recorded.
• CMOS image sensors of the type used in the camera generate a so-called “rolling
shutter” effect that can cause distortion in pictures of moving objects. This distortion is
a phenomenon that occurs in pictures of fast-moving subjects or if the camera is moved
during shooting. It is particularly noticeable in pictures taken at long focal lengths.
•
If the size of the movie file being recorded exceeds 4 GB, the file will be split
automatically. (Depending on shooting conditions, movies under 4 GB in size may be split
into multiple files.)
• When the camera is used continuously for extended periods, the temperature of the
image sensor will rise and noise and color splotches may be visible in the display.
Should this occur, turn the camera off and wait for it to cool. Noise and color splotches
are particularly likely to occur at high ISO sensitivities. If the temperature of the sensor
increases further, the camera will turn off automatically.

R
button cannot be used to record movies in the following instances:
While shutter the button is pressed halfway; during bulb, time, composite, sequential or
time lapse photography; or when e-portrait, handheld starlight, panorama, or backlight
