     Changing the shutter speed during  movie shooting is not recommended 
    since the changes in the ex posure will be recorded.
      When shooting a movie of a moving su bject, a shutter speed of 1/30 sec. 
    to 1/125 sec. is recommended. The  faster the shutter speed, the less 
    smooth the subject’s  movement will look.

    During movie shooting in the d, s , f  or BULB  mode, this camera 
    supports the function that turns on the Speedlite’s LED light 
    automatically in low-light conditions.  For details, refer to the

    If [ISO speed range]’s [Minimum] is set to [L (50)] and you switch from still 
    photo shooting to  movie shooting, the  automatic ISO speed setting range’s 
    minimum for movie shooting will be ISO  100. It cannot be expanded to ISO 50.
     You can lock the exposure (AE lock) by pressing the  button (p.177). After applying AE lock during movie shoo ting, you can cancel it by pressing

    ISO speed during manual-exposure shooting
     With [Auto] ( A), the ISO speed will be set automatically within 
    ISO 100 - 25600.
      You can set the ISO speed manually within ISO 100 - 25600 in 1/3-
    stop increments. Under [ z2: ISO speed settings ], if [ISO speed 
    range ]’s [Maximum] is set to [ 51200/H], the manual ISO speed 
    setting range’s Maximum will be ex panded to H (equivalent to ISO 
    51200). Note that even if you set [ Maximum] to [51200 ], the 
    maximum will remain at ISO 25600 and not be expanded. Setting 
    [Maximum ] to [H1 (102400) ] or [H2 (204800) ] will enable the setting 
    range to be expanded  up to ISO 102400/204800.
      If [z 2: Highlight tone priority ] is set to [Enable] (p.150), you can 
    set the ISO speed within IS O 200 - 25600 (depending on the [ ISO 
    speed range] setting).
      Under [ z2: ISO speed settings ], [Auto ISO range ] and [Min. 
    shutter spd. ] cannot be set (p.127, 128) for movie shooting. 
     Since shooting a movie at ISO 32 000/40000/51200 may result in 
    substantial noise, these speeds  are designated as expanded ISO 
    speeds (displayed as [ H]).
      If [ISO speed range]’s [ Minimum] is set to [ L (50)] and you switch from 
    still photo shooting to movie shooti ng, the manual ISO speed setting 
    range’s minimum for movi e shooting will be ISO 100. It cannot be 
    expanded to ISO 50.
      Changing the shutter s peed or aperture, or zo oming the lens during 
    movie shooting is not recommended  since the changes in the exposure, 
    or noise at high ISO sp eeds may be recorded.
      When shooting a movie of a moving su bject, a shutter speed of 1/30 sec. 
    to 1/125 sec. is recommended. The  faster the shutter speed, the less 
    smooth the subject’s  movement will look.
      If you change the shutter speed while  shooting under fluorescent or LED

    Notes on Movie Shooting
     The camera cannot autofocus co ntinuously like a camcorder.
      Autofocusing during movi e shooting may momentar ily throw the focus far 
    off or change the exposure.
      When you autofocus during movie shoo ting under low-light conditions 
    using a USM lens, horizontal stripes  (noise) may be recorded. Note that 
    with certain lenses equi pped with the electronic  focusing ring, similar 
    noise may be recorded even  with manual focusing (MF).
      During movie shooting, do not point  the lens toward the sun. The sun’s 
    heat can damage the camera ’s internal components.
      Under [5 1: Record func+card/folder sel. ], even if [Record func.] is set 
    to [ Rec. to multiple ] (p.114), the movie cannot  be recorded to both Card 
    1 < f> and Card 2 < g>. If [ Rec. separately ] or [Rec. to multiple ] is 
    set, the movie will be recorded  to the card which is set for [Playback].
      If  is set and the ISO  speed or aperture changes during movie 
    shooting, the white bala nce may also change.
      If you shoot a movie under fluoresc ent or LED lighting, the movie may 
    flicker.
      Zooming the lens during movie shoot ing is not recommended. Zooming 
    the lens can cause  changes in the exposure re gardless of whether the 
    lens’ maximum aperture  changes or not. Exposure changes may be 
    recorded as a result.
      Cautions for movie shooting  are on pages 243 and 244.
      If necessary, also read the Live  View shooting cautions on pages 
    217 and 218.
      Movie-related setting s are under the [z4] and [ z5] tabs (p.241).
      A movie file is recorded  each time you shoot a movie. If the file size 
    exceeds 4 GB, a new f ile will be created.
      The movie image’s field of view is  approx. 100% (with movie recording 
    size set to [A ]). 
      You can also focus the im age by pressing the  button.

      Monaural sound is recorded by the  camera’s built-in microphone (p.221).
      By connecting a stereo  microphone (commercially available) equipped 
    with a 3.5 mm mini plug to the camera ’s external microphone IN terminal 
    (p.21), stereo sound re cording is possible.

    Taking still photos during movie shooting
      If you take a still photo during movie shooting, the movie will record 
    a still moment lasting approx. 1 sec.
      The captured still photo will be reco rded to the card, and the movie 
    shooting will resume automatically  when the Live View image is 
    displayed.
      The movie and still photo will be recorded as separate files on the 
    card.
      If [Record func.] (p.114) is set to [Standard ] or [Auto switch card ], 
    the movies and still photos will be recorded to the same card. If 
    [Rec. separately] or [Rec. to multiple ] is set, the movies will be
