Recording and Playing Back Movies
• Depending on the distance to the subject or the amount of zoom applied, subjects with repeating
patterns (fabrics, lattice windows, etc.) may have colored stripes (interference patterns, moire, etc.)
in them during movie recording and playback. This occurs when the pattern in the subject and the
layout of the image sensor interfere with each other; it is not a malfunction.
B Notes About Camera Temperature
• The camera may become hot when shooting movies for an extended period of time or when the
camera is used in a hot area.
• If the inside of the camera becomes extremely hot when recording movies, the camera will
automatically stop recording.
The amount of time remaining until the camera stops recording (B10s) is displayed.
After the camera stops recording, it turns itself off.
Leave the camera off until the inside of the camera has cooled.
B Notes About Autofocus for Movie Recording
Autofocus may not perform as expected (A61). Should this occur, try the following:
1. Set Autofocus mode in the movie menu to Single AF (default setting) before starting movie
recording.
2. Frame another subject (positioned at the same distance from the camera as the intended
subject) in the center of the frame, press the b (e movie-record) button to start recording, and
modify the composition.
