Menu item details
Record Setting :
Selects the frame rate of the movie from [60p 50M]/[50p 50M], [30p 50M]/[25p 50M], and [24p 50M*].
* Only when [NTSC/PAL Selector] is set to NTSC.
Frame Rate :
Selects the shooting frame rate from [240fps]/[250fps], [480fps]/[500fps], and [960fps]/[1000fps].
Priority Setting :
Select from [Quality Priority] which prioritizes the image quality and [Shoot Time Priority] which prioritizes the duration of
time of the movie.
REC Timing :
Selects whether to record for a set amount of time after you press the MOVIE button ([Start Trigger]), or for a set amount
of time until you press the MOVIE button ([End Trigger]/[End Trigger Half]).
Frame rate
In super-slow-motion movie shooting, the camera shoots at a faster shutter speed than the number of shooting frames
per second. For example, when [
Frame Rate] is set to [960fps], the shutter speed per frame will be faster than
approx. 1/1000 second in order to shoot 960 frames per second. To maintain this shutter speed, sufficient ambient light is
necessary during shooting. If the ambient light is insufficient, the ISO sensitivity will become higher, resulting in more
noise.
Shortest shooting distance
The image becomes out of focus when the subject is too close, such as during macro shooting. Shoot from the
shortest shooting distance (from the front of the lens, approximately 3 cm (0.10 ft.) at the wide-angle end,
approximately 72 cm (2.36 ft.) at the telephoto end, and approximately 140 cm (4.59 ft.) at a 35 mm-equivalent focal
length of around 250 mm) or further.
Timing of recording
Depending on the [ REC Timing] setting, the relationship between when you press the MOVIE button and the
recorded section of the movie is as shown below.
[Start Trigger]
Movie capturing (shooting) starts when the MOVIE button is pressed. When the MOVIE button is pressed again, or when
the recordable duration of time has elapsed, movie capturing ends and the camera starts to record the captured movie to
the memory card.
(A): The point when the MOVIE button is pressed
(B): Recorded section
(C): Recording to memory card in progress (You cannot start the next session of shooting.)
[End Trigger]/[End Trigger Half]
Buffering (temporarily capturing a movie on the camera) starts once the shooting standby screen is displayed. When the
captured data fills the buffering capacity, old data is overwritten sequentially. When you press the MOVIE button, the
camera starts to record a movie of the set duration calculated retroactively from that point on the memory card.
With [End Trigger], a movie of the maximum possible duration is recorded. With [End Trigger Half], a movie of half
the maximum possible duration is recorded. With [End Trigger Half], the time it takes to record to the memory card is
also shorter than with [End Trigger].
