Recording and Image Quality

• The movie file format will be MOV.

Playback and TV connection

• If you connect the camera to a TV set with an HDMI cable and shoot a movie in [1920x1080] or [1280x720], the movie being shot will be displayed at a small size on the TV. However, the actual movie will be properly recorded at the movie recording size that was set.

IMPORTANT

White [ ] and Red [ ] Temperature Warning Icons

• If the camera's temperature increases due to prolonged movie shooting or a high ambient temperature, a white [ ] icon will appear. Even if you shoot a movie while this icon is displayed, the movie's image quality will not be affected. However, if you shoot still photos, the image quality of the still photos may deteriorate. You should stop shooting still photos and allow the camera to cool down.
• If the cameras temperature further increases while the white [ ] icon is displayed, a red [ ] icon may start blinking. This blinking icon is a warning that movie shooting will soon be terminated automatically. If this happens, you will not be able to shoot again until the camera's temperature decreases. Turn off the power and let the camera rest for a while.
• Movie shooting at a high temperature for a prolonged period will cause the[ ] and [ ] icons to appear sooner. When not shooting, turn off the camera.
