      Continuous still photo shooting is  possible during movie shooting. 
    However, the captured  images will not be displayed on the screen.

    may stop automatically.

    possible.
      If you want to shoot st ill photos continuously  during movie shooting, 
    using a high-speed card  is recommended. Setting a smaller image size 
    for still photos and shooting fewer co ntinuous still photos are also 
    recommended.
      You can shoot still photo s in all drive modes.
      The self-timer can be used before yo u start shooting a movie. If used 
    during movie shooting, the self-timer  will switch to single shooting.

    You can shoot movies while recording 
    sound with the built-in monaural 
    microphone or with a commercially-
    available stereo microphone. You can 
    also freely adjust the sound-recording 
    level.
    Set the sound recording with [z4: 
    Sound recording ].
    [Auto] : The sound-recording level is  adjusted automatically. Auto 
    level control will operate automat ically in response to the 
    sound level.
    [Manual ] : For advanced users. You c an adjust the sound recording 
    level to one of 64 levels. Select [ Rec. level] and look at 
    the level meter while turning the < 5> dial to adjust the 
    sound-recording level. While  looking at the peak hold 
    indicator (approx. 3 sec.), adjust so that the level meter 
    sometimes lights up the “12” (-12 dB) mark on the right for 
    the loudest sounds. If it ex ceeds “0”, the sound will be 
    distorted.
    [Disable ] : Sound will not be recorded.
    When set to [ Enable], it reduces wind noise when there is wind 
    outdoors. This feature works only with the built-in microphone.
    Note that [ Enable] will also reduce low bass s ounds, so set this function 
    to [Disable] when there is no wind. It will  record a more natural sound 
    than with [ Enable].

    3 Setting the Sound Recording
     Using the microphone
    The built-in microphone records mo naural sound. Stereo sound 
    recording is possible by connecting an external stereo microphone 
    (commercially-available) equipped with a miniature stereo plug (3.5 
    mm) to the camera’s external  microphone IN terminal (p.21). When 
    an external microphone is connect ed, sound recording will switch 
    automatically to the external microphone.
      The sound volume balance between L  (left) and R (right) cannot be 
    adjusted.
     
    Both L and R record audio at a 48 kHz/16-bit sampling rate.  If [z 5: Silent Control ] is set to [Enable h ] (p.238), you can adjust the 
    sound-recording level with the  touch pad to reduce the operation 
    noise during movie shooting.

    < h > on the inner ring of the Quick 
    Control Dial.
    You can operate the camera silently just 
    by touching the top, bottom, left, or right 
    of < h>.

    The time code is a time reference 
    recorded automatically to synchronize 
    the video and audio during movie 
    shooting. It is recorded at all times in the 
    following units: hours, minutes, seconds, 
    and frames. It is mainly used during 
    movie editing.
    Set the time code with [z5: Time code ].
    [Rec run ] : The time code counts up only while you are shooting 
    a movie.
    [Free run ] : The time code counts up w hether you are shooting or 
    not.
    You can set the time code’s start time.
    [Manual input setting ] : You can freely set the hour, minute, second, 
    and frame.
    [Reset ] : The time set with [ Manual input setting] and 
    [Set to camera time ] is reset to 00:00:00:00.

     Shooting still photos during movie  shooting will cause a discrepancy 
    between the actual ti me and time code.

    You can select what to display on the movie playback screen.
    [Rec time ] : Displays the recording time and playback time during 
    movie playback.
    [Time code ] : Displays the time code during movie playback.
    If the frame rate setting is  6(29.97 fps) or  8(59.94 fps), the time 
    code’s frame count causes a discr epancy between the actual time and 
    time code. This discrepancy can be corrected automatically. This 
    correction function is called drop frame.
    [Enable ] : The discrepancy is corrected automatically by skipping 
    time code numbers.
    [Disable ] : The discrepancy is not corrected.
    Movie Playback Count
    Drop Frame
    When the frame rate is set to  4 (23.976 fps), the drop frame function does 
    not take effect.
    Regardless of the [ Movie rec count] setting, the time  code will always be 
    recorded to th e movie file.

    With [Time code] set:
     If you change the se tting for either [Movie play count ] in [z5 (movie): 
    Time code ] or for [x3: Movie play count ], the other setting will also 
    change automatically.
      “Frames” are not displayed during  movie shooting and movie playback.
