Note

  • Use an SDXC card faster than Class10 when recording movies in XAVC S.
  • The playback frame rate shown above is the frame rate when movies are played back using playback devices or software other than the remote control. The playback image frame rate displayed on the LCD screen of the bundled Live-View Remote will change according to the Wi-Fi communication status of the camera and remote control (and it is different from the frame rate used when shooting).
  • Continuous movie shooting time is approximately 13 hours maximum. In [SSLOW] mode, it is approximately 3 hours maximum.
    When the movie record format is set to MP4 and the imaging frame rate is 120p/100p in high speed recording, the continuous movie shooting time is approximately 9 hours 40 minutes maximum.
  • The times shown are recordable times using a Sony memory card.
  • Audio is not recorded when images are recorded in [SSLOW] mode.
  • The field angle changes when the movie size is set to [VGA].
  • SteadyShot is not effective when the image quality setting mode is set to [HS120]/[HS100] or [SSLOW].
