Solution
You can make a short movie of a day just by taking still images.
Each time you take a picture, the scene just before taking your shot (about two to four seconds) will be automatically recorded as a movie. All the movies recorded on the same day will be saved as a single file.
IMPORTANT
- The position and shape of the operation buttons, screens displayed, and setting items may differ according to the model you use.
- Since you are also shooting movies when you shoot still images, the battery will be depleted more quickly than in [AUTO] (
) mode. - Movies created in [Movie Digest] (
) mode are saved as iFrame movies. - In the following cases, movies will be saved as separate files even if they were shot on the same day with [Movie Digest] () mode.
