AUDIO
MOVIE MODE
Movie can be recorded with and without audio. Audio is set in the movie menu (p. 44).
When audio is off, the optical zoom can be used during movie recording.
The movie mode option selects the type of movie recorded. Standard produces a normal
movie clip. Night Movie uses high camera sensitivity to record under low light levels;
camera sensitivity will automatically increase in low light. Image quality can be lower with
Night Movies because of the higher sensitivity. The movie mode is set in the movie menu
(p. 44).
In movie recording, some functions can be changed with the movie menu. Exposure,
focus, and camera sensitivity are automatic. Exposure compensation can be used (p.
41). When the red low-battery indicator appears (p. 14), power is insufficient for movie
recording.
The optical zoom can be used during recording if the audio is turned off in the menu. A
4X digital zoom is available with or without audio during recording when the frame rate is
set to 15fps.
Depending on the image size and frame rate, the writing speed of the memory card in
use may prematurely end the recording of a movie clip, especially with 640 X 480 size
images at 30 frames per second. Test the card before important events. Check the
