Depending on the make of memory card used, recording may end before the memory
card is full ( 43). Time-lapse movies will end automatically after 1,800 frames. During
recording, do not touch the built-in microphone. To prevent the sound of the camera
focusing from interfering with recording, select a focus mode of Single AF.
Except at settings of TV movie 640★ and Small size 320★, digital zoom is available
in movie mode (maximum 2 ×). Exposure compensation is only available at a setting of
Time-lapse movie 640★.
The Speedlight turns off when movie mode is selected. Other fl ash modes can be se-
lected for Time-lapse movie 640★ ( 32).
The progress indicator stops at 999 s. Recording can continue past this point if enough
memory is available on the memory card.
Movies are recorded as QuickTime movie fi les with the extension “.MOV” (e.g.,
“DSCN0001.MOV”) and can be played back on a computer after transfer.
