| NOTE | *1 6K PHOTO is a high speed burst shooting function that cuts a still image out of a 4:3 or 3:2 video footage with approx. 18-megapixel (approx. 6000 x 3000 effective pixel count) that the 6K image manages. *2 About motion picture recording / 6K PHOTO/4K PHOTO recording - Use a card with SD Speed Class with "Class 4" or higher when recording motion pictures in [AVCHD] or [MP4(under 28Mbps)]. - Use a card with SD Speed Class with "UHS-I / UHS-II UHS Speed Class 3 (U3)" when recording motion pictures with [mov], [MP4] in [4K] or [6K PHOTO/4K PHOTO]. (SD speed class is the speed standard regarding continuous writing.) - MP4 motion pictures with [MP4] in [4K]: - When using an SDHC memory card: You can continue recording without interruption even if the file size exceeds 4 GB, but the motion picture file will be divided and recorded/played back separately. - When using an SDXC memory card: You can continue recording without interruption even if the file size exceeds 96 GB or 3 hours 4 minutes in length, but the motion picture file will be divided and recorded/played back separately. - MP4 motion pictures with [MP4] in [FHD]: - You can continue recording without interruption even if the file size exceeds 4 GB or 30 minutes in length, but the motion picture file will be divided and recorded/played back separately. *3 For [4K 60p] or [4K 50p] video output, use an HDMI2.0 cable that has the HDMI logo on it, and that is described as"4K compatible". *4 The camera may stop recording when used in lower or higher than recommended operating temperature: -10 to 40 degrees. *5 Firmware must be updated to version 1.1 or later. *6 Firmware must be updated to the latest version 2.0. ・4:2:2 10-bit recording is a recording mode for film production and the video needs to be processed on PC. The original video cannot be played on standard TV, Blu-ray DiscTM recorder and Blu-ray DiscTM player. It may cause problems such as freezing when played on these devices. *7 Firmware must be updated to the latest version 2.3. *8 Firmware must be updated to the latest version 2.3. for shooting in modes other than Creative Video mode. | ||
