This is a physical phenomenon whereby distortion occurs in the fi lmed image when shooting a fast-moving subject or due to camera shaking. In particular, this phenomenon becomes more noticeable when using a long focal length. • If the camera is used for extended periods, the temperature of the image pickup device will rise and noise and colored fog may appear in images. Turn off the camera for a short time. Noise and colored fog may also appear in images recorded at high ISO sensitivity settings. If the temperature rises further, the camera will turn off automatically. • When using a Four Thirds system lens, the AF will not operate while recording movies.  Taking photographs during movie recording • Press the shutter button during movie recording to pause movie recording and take a photograph. Movie recording restarts after the photograph is taken. Press the R button to end recording. Three fi les will be recorded to the memory card: the movie footage preceding the photograph, the photograph itself, and the movie footage following the photograph. • Only one photograph can be taken at a time during movie recording; the self-timer and fl ash cannot be used. # Cautions • Image size and quality for photographs are independent of movie frame size. • The autofocus and metering used in movie mode may differ from that used to take photographs. • The R button cannot be used to record movies in the following instances: Multiple exposure (still photography also ends.)/shutter button pressed halfway/during bulb or time photography/sequential shooting/Panorama/SCN mode (e-Portrait, Hand- Held Starlight, 3D)/time lapse shooting

3 Recording movies You can record movies in all shooting modes except J (PHOTO STORY). First, try recording in full auto mode. 1 Set the mode dial to A. 2 Press the R button to begin recording. • You can change the focus location by touching the screen while recording (P. 27). R button 3 Press the R button again to end recording. 00:02:18 00:02:18 R Displayed during recording Recording time # Cautions • When using a camera with a CMOS image sensor, moving objects may appear distorted due to the rolling shutter phenomenon. This is a physical phenomenon whereby distortion occurs in the fi lmed image when shooting a fast-moving subject or due to camera shaking. In particular, this phenomenon becomes more noticeable when using a long focal length. • If the camera is used for extended periods, the temperature of the image pickup device will rise and noise and colored fog may appear in images. Turn off the camera for a short time. Noise and colored fog may also appear in images recorded at high ISO sensitivity settings. If the temperature rises further, the camera will turn off automatically. • When using a Four Thirds system lens, the AF will not operate while recording movies.  Taking photographs during movie recording • Press the shutter button during movie recording to pause movie recording and take a photograph. Movie recording restarts after the photograph is taken. Press the R button to end recording. Three fi les will be recorded to the memory card: the movie footage preceding the photograph, the photograph itself, and the movie footage following the photograph. • Only one photograph can be taken at a time during movie recording; the self-timer and fl ash cannot be used. # Cautions • Image size and quality for photographs are independent of movie frame size. • The autofocus and metering used in movie mode may differ from that used to take photographs. • The R button cannot be used to record movies in the following instances: Multiple exposure (still photography also ends.)/shutter button pressed halfway/during bulb or time photography/sequential shooting/Panorama/SCN mode (e-Portrait, Hand- Held Starlight, 3D)/time lapse shooting
