- Click the [Edit] menu in the Main Window and select [Manage My Camera].
- Click the [Set individually] tab, followed by [Create a My Camera Sound].
- The My Camera Sound Maker window will open.
- Click the tab that corresponds to the type of sound you would like to create (i.e. Start-up Sound, Shutter Sound, etc.)
- To record a sound using a microphone (for example), click the [Record] button.
- Click [Start] to begin recording, and click [Stop] to end the recording.
- When you have recorded or set all the sounds you would like, click the [5. Save] tab to save the sound file(s).
IMPORTANT
The "Sound time" will display in red if the sound file exceeds the time limit. If this happens, select the desired sound portion using the blue and red switches and select [Cuts switches, before blue and after red] from the [cut] menu to delete unnecessary sound portions. In addition, when you select [Limits blue and red switch to within limit time], the switches can no longer be moved outside of the time limit width. |
REFERENCE
The Volume switch setting affects the volume of the sound file to be saved. In other words, if you turn down the volume of a sound you recorded on the computer because it is too loud when you play it, the sound will have a low volume when you upload it to the camera. So when the playback volume is too loud on the computer, turn down the volume of the speakers. |
