Video Controls

Zoom

Zoom is unlocked while a recording is in progress, however this is inferior digital zoom only. Optical zoom must be set before a recording starts, or not at all.

Focus

Autofocus actually gets some extra flexibility. Users may manually choose from single or full-time continous AF during video, an option we don't always see in ultracompacts.

Audio Features

The last option available for video recording is wind cut. This feature attempts to eliminate the static or "snowy" sound of wind passing across the microphone, but it sometimes works at the expense of legitimate audio signals.
