! Noise

While shooting at slow shutter speeds, noise may appear on screen. These phenomena occur when the temperature rises in the image pickup device or image pickup device internal drive circuit, causing current to be generated in those sections of the image pickup device that are not normally exposed to light. This can also occur when shooting with a high ISO setting in a high-temperature environment. To reduce this noise, the camera activates the noise reduction function. g “Long Exposure Noise Reduction Options (Noise Reduction)” (P. 117)

Recording Movies

# When recording movies, use an SD card that supports an SD speed class of 10 or higher. # A UHS-II or UHS-I card with a UHS speed class of 3 or better is required when:

a movie resolution of [4K] or [C4K] is selected in the [nK] menu or a Motion Compensation of [A-I] (All-Intra) is selected in the [nK] menu

Recording movies in movie mode (n)

PASMB

Rotate the mode dial to n (movie mode) to record movies using the e󰀨ects available in P, A, S, and M modes (P. 60).

Rotate the mode dial to n.

Press the R button to begin recording.

• A beep does not sound when the camera focuses in movie mode.

• Movie you are recording will be displayed on the monitor.

• If you put your eye to the viewnder, movie you are recording will be displayed in the

viewnder.

• A red frame is displayed during movie recording (P. 185).

• You can change the focus location by tapping the screen while recording.

• The camera will start the recording count and display the recording time.

Press the R button again to end recording.

# When the camera is used continuously for extended periods, the temperature of the

image sensor will rise and noise and color splotches may be visible in the display.

Should this occur, turn the camera o󰀨 and wait for it to cool. Noise and color splotches

are particularly likely to occur at high ISO sensitivities. If the temperature of the sensor

increases further, the camera will turn o󰀨 automatically.

# When using a Four Thirds system lens, the AF will not operate while recording movies. # When high-speed movie recording is selected for [nK], movies shot with [i-Enhance] or

an art lter selected for picture mode will be recorded in [Natural] mode.

# The sound of touch operations and button operations may be recorded. # CMOS image sensors of the type used in the camera generate a so-called “rolling

shutter” e󰀨ect that can cause distortion in pictures of moving objects. This distortion is

a phenomenon that occurs in pictures of fast-moving subjects or if the camera is moved during shooting. It is particularly noticeable in pictures taken at long focal lengths.

# When an SDXC card is used, movies up to 3 hours long can be recorded. Movies over 3

hours are recorded over multiple les (depending on shooting conditions, the camera may start recording to a new le before the 3-hour limit is reached).

# When an SD/SDHC card is used, movies over 4 GB in size are recorded over multiple

les (depending on shooting conditions, the camera may start recording to a new le

before the 4 GB limit is reached).

%You can also begin recording movies by pressing the shutter button. g “Recording a
