Using a card of SD speed ‘Class 4’
or above is recommended for recording motion pictures
in [AVCHD Lite(GPS REC)]/ [AVCHD Lite].
Using a card of SD speed ‘Class 6’
or above is recommended for recording motion pictures
in ‘MOTION JPEG’.
The SD speed class is a speed rating for continuous writing.
Depending on the type of card, a card access message may appear for a while after recording a
motion picture. This is not a defect.
If data is repeatedly recorded and deleted, the total available recording time on the SD card may be
reduced. To restore the original capacity, use the camera to format the SD card. Be sure to save all
important data to your computer or other media before formatting, as all data saved to the card will
be erased.
Immediately release the motion picture button after pressing it.
Sounds of camera operations, such as zoom movement and beeps may be recorded.

Extra Optical Zoom, flash, [FACE RECOG.], [ROTATE DISP.] for pictures taken vertically.
Recording automatically ends when there is no more available space. For certain memory cards,
recording may end while in progress.
The screen can become narrower in motion pictures compared to still pictures. Also, if the Aspect
Ratio is different for still pictures and motion pictures, the angle of view will change when starting to
record a motion picture. The recordable area is displayed by setting [REC AREA] (24) to [ON].
If Extra Optical Zoom was used before pressing the motion picture button, these settings will be
cleared, and the recordable area will be larger.
[QVGA] in [REC QUALITY] (108) can only be recorded to the built-in memory.
Fast-moving subjects in motion pictures may appear blurred during playback.
Depending on the environment when recording motion pictures, the screen may turn black for an
instant or noise may be recorded because of static electricity, electromagnetic waves, etc.
It may not be possible to play back motion pictures recorded in [MOTION JPEG] on Panasonic
digital cameras (LUMIX)
. (Motion pictures recorded on Panasonic digital cameras (LUMIX) can be
played back on this camera.)

When recording motion pictures, it is recommended to use a sufficiently charged battery or an AC
adaptor (optional) and DC coupler (optional).
