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] → set [Movie Shooting] 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 focusing 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) and select the
desired exposure mode.
The following settings for still image shooting are applied to the movie shooting:
White Balance
Creative Style
Metering Mode
Face/Eye Priority in AF
Face Priority in Multi Metering
D-Range Optimizer
Lens Comp.
You can change the settings for ISO sensitivity, exposure compensation, and focus area while shooting movies.
When shooting movies, ISO values between ISO 100 and ISO 102400 are available. If the ISO value is set to a value larger than
ISO 102400, the setting is automatically switched to ISO 102400. When you finish recording the movie, the ISO value returns to
the original setting.
In movie shooting mode, ISO sensitivity can be selected from ISO 100 to ISO 102400. If the ISO value is set to a value smaller
than ISO 100, the setting is automatically switched to ISO 100. When you finish recording the movie, the ISO value returns to the
original setting.
While shooting movies, the recorded image can be output without the shooting information display by setting [HDMI Info. Display]
to [Off].
