5.
Use [
8
] and [
2
] to select the frame rate (recording speed) you want
and then press [SET].
A fast frame rate (such as 1000 fps) will result in a smaller image size.

Record the movie the same way as you would a normal movie (page
61).
Press [
0
] (Movie) to start and stop recording.
• During High Speed Movie recording, focus is fixed at the position where it was
when recording started. To focus an image, half-press the shutter button for
Auto Focus or focus manually before you press [
0
] (Movie) to start recording.
• When “30-240 fps” is selected as the frame rate, recording always starts with a
frame rate of 30 fps. You can switch the frame rate between 30 fps and 240 fps
only while recording is in progress. Audio is recorded only while shooting at a
30 fps. Use [
4
] and [
6
] or press [SET] to switch speeds.
NOTE
• The higher the frame rate (speed), the more lighting is required when shooting.
When shooting a high speed movie, shoot in a well-lit environment.
• When recording certain types of movies, the image that appears on the monitor
screen may be smaller than normal. When recording a high speed movie, there are
black bands along the top, bottom, left, and right of the screen.
• When recording a high speed movie, light source flicker can cause horizontal
bands to appear in the image. This does not indicate malfunction of the camera.
• Monitor screen content switching is disabled during high speed movie recording.
