This function reduces the blur incurred by camera movement when taking movies.
The camera moves the image-capture area of the CCD according to the movement
of the subject, reducing blur when recording. The images are recorded slightly larger
when [
h
] is set to [ON].

Camera movement compensation
Note
• When the camera moves a lot or the subject is moving quickly, the
compensation function may not operate effectively.
• When taking pictures with the camera stabilized, set [
h
] to [OFF], otherwise
the movement of the subject may influence the screen to move.
• When the record mode is set to HQ, SQ1, or SQ2, recording will continue until
the card is full unless stopped by pressing the shutter button.
• A long recorded movie cannot be edited. (P. 109)
• If a single movie recording uses up all of the card’s memory, create space on
the card by erasing the movie or downloading it to a computer.
