      You can press the movie button, and the camera will start recording movies automatically.
      IMPORTANT
      • The camera may become warm when shooting movies repeatedly over an extended period. This does not indicate damage.
      • Keep your fingers away from the microphone while shooting movies. Blocking the microphone may prevent audio from being recorded or may cause the recording to sound muffled.

      • Avoid touching camera controls other than the <Movie button> () when shooting movies, because sounds made by the camera will be recorded.
