AUTO REC 2_C1A0

A red frame appears 2 seconds after the menu display disappears.

For video recording, recording continues while there are still movements of the subject (changes in brightness) within the red frame. When there are no more movements of the subject (changes in brightness) within the red frame, recording will stop in 5 seconds.

To stop video recording manually, press the START/STOP button. However, as the “AUTO REC” setting remains at “ON” even after the video recording is stopped, recording starts again when movements of the subject (changes in brightness) are detected within the red frame. To cancel “AUTO REC”, set it to “OFF”.

Caution

  • The only manual recording setting available is “TELE MACRO”.
    The rest are all set to “AUTO”.
  • Digital zoom and image stabilizer are not available after “AUTO REC” is set.
  • “AUTO REC” cannot be used together with “TIME-LAPSE RECORDING”. When both are set, priority is given to “TIME-LAPSE RECORDING”.
  • The auto power off and power-saving modes are not available after “AUTO REC” is set.

Memo

  • Recording stops when there are no changes for 5 seconds during video recording.
  • Recording may not start when the movements of the subject within the red frame are too fast or the changes in brightness are too small.
  • Recording may start due to changes in brightness even if there is no movement within the red frame.
  • While zooming, recording cannot be started.
