camera all your settings will return to default, except image size and image quality. Any non-default settings you require will need to be reset, for example colour tone and white balance. Check them before you shoot your next video.

Changing the video image size

1 Select Size from the settings menu.

2 Select a pixel value from the four

options:

640x480(W) - The highest quality wide screen option.

320x240 - Smaller image size, therefore smaller file size. Great for saving on memory space.

176x144 - Smallest image size and therefore a smaller file size.

16:9 Wide - Wide screen option.

3 Select the size option you’d like to

use and press Save to implement your changes. The settings menu will automatically close, ready for you to shoot your video.

NOTE: When you view your videos, playback speed is 30 frames per second, with the exception of 120 fps where playback is at 15 frames per second.
