Memo

  • “VIDEO QUALITY” is automatically set to “XP”.
  • When high-speed recording is enabled, only the optical zoom can be used.
  • Recording is performed at a resolution that is lower than the standard setting, and the video is stored after being converted into the high-definition quality. As such, images may appear grainier than other movies, and a black frame appears around the image.
  • Audio sound is not recorded together with the video.
  • Increasing to a higher recording speed results in grainier and darker images.
    During high-speed recording, it is recommended that a tripod be used, and recording be performed in a bright location with the subject magnified as much as possible.
