Shooting movies
You can record movies by pressing the MOVIE (Movie) button.
Hint
You can assign the start/stop movie recording function to a preferred key. MENU → (Camera Settings2) → [Custom
Key(Shoot.)] → set the function to the preferred key.
When you want to specify the area to be focused on, set the area using [Focus Area].
To keep the focus on a face, arrange the composition so that the focus area frame and face detection frame overlap, or set the
[Focus Area] to [Wide].
You can focus quickly while shooting movies by pressing the shutter button halfway down. (The sound of auto focus operation
may be recorded in some cases.)
To adjust the shutter speed and aperture value to the desired settings, set the shooting mode to (Movie/S&Q Motion).
The following settings for still image shooting are applied to the movie shooting:
White Balance
Creative Style
Metering Mode
Smile/Face Detect.
D-Range Opt.
Lens Comp.
You can change the settings for ISO sensitivity, exposure compensation, and focus area while shooting movies.
While shooting movies, the recorded image can be output without the shooting information display by setting [HDMI Info. Display]
to [Off].
Note
The sound of the lens and the product in operation may be recorded during movie recording.
You can turn the sound off by selecting MENU →
(Camera Settings2) → [Audio Recording] → [Off].
When shooting, the sound of the shoulder strap hooks (triangular hook) could be recorded, depending on the situation used.
