Memory cards that can be used

This camera supports CFexpress Type A memory cards and SD memory cards (UHS-I, UHS-II compatible). When using microSD memory cards with this camera, be sure to use the appropriate adaptor.

For still-image shooting

The following memory cards can be used:

• CFexpress Type A memory cards
• SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards

For movie recording

Movie recording formats and compatible memory cards are as follows.

For S&Q Motion shooting

File formats and compatible memory cards are as follows. In slow-motion recording, the recording bit rate is higher than usual. You may need a memory card that can be written at a higher speed.

*1 When [S&Q Frame Rate] is set to [120fps]/[100fps], V90 may be required.
*2 When [S&Q Frame Rate] is set to [240fps]/[200fps], V90 may be required.
*3 For slow-motion recording, a CFexpress Type A memory card (VPG200 or higher) is required.
*4 When [S&Q Frame Rate] is set to [240fps]/[200fps], a CFexpress Type A memory card (VPG200 or higher) is required.

Hint

When the recording bit-rate is 200 Mbps, you can also record using an SDXC card (U3/V30).

Note

• For proxy recording, a faster memory card may be required.
• CFexpress Type B memory cards cannot be used.
• When an SDHC memory card is used to record movies over extended periods of time, the recorded movies are divided into files 4 GB in size.
• When recording a movie on memory cards in both the Slot 1 and the Slot 2, insert two memory cards with the same file system. Movies cannot be recorded simultaneously when using a combination of the exFAT file system and FAT32 file system.

Charge the battery pack sufficiently before attempting to recover the database files on the memory card.

Shooting movies

You can set the recording format and exposure and record movies by using the dedicated menu items for movies.

1. Set the mode dial to ? (Movie).
   Turn the mode dial while pressing the mode dial lock release button in the center of the mode dial.
2. Press the MOVIE (movie) button to start recording.
3. Press the MOVIE button again to stop recording.

To shoot with the touch function icons

You can also start shooting by touching an icon on the screen instead of pressing the MOVIE (movie) button. Swipe the monitor left or right to display the touch function icons, and then touch the ▶️ (start recording) icon. You can view the captured image by touching the ?️ (switch to playback screen) icon.

To select the recording format ( File Format)

The resolution and degree of compatibility vary depending on the recording format (XAVC HS 4K/XAVC S 4K/XAVC S HD/XAVC S-I 4K/XAVC S-I HD/XAVC S-I DCI 4K). Select the format in accordance with the purpose of the movie to be shot.

To select the frame rate or image quality ( Movie Settings)

The frame rate determines the smoothness of motion in movies. ([ Movie Settings] → [Rec Frame Rate])

The image quality changes with the bit rate. ([ Movie Settings] → [Record Setting])

If the bit rate is high, the amount of information will increase and you can shoot high-quality movies. However, this will result in a larger volume of data.

Select the frame rate and bit rate according to your preference and purpose.

To adjust the exposure (Exposure Ctrl Type/Exposure mode)

When [Exposure Ctrl Type] is set to [P/A/S/M Mode], select the exposure mode using the shutter speed and aperture value combination in the same way as when shooting a still image.

When [Exposure Ctrl Type] is set to [Flexible Exp. Mode], you can set the shutter speed, aperture value, and ISO sensitivity automatically or manually.

To select the focusing method ( Focus Mode/ Focus Area)

Select AF-C (Continuous AF) or MF (Manual Focus) for [ Focus Mode]. You can specify the focus area by setting [ Focus Area].

Even during shooting with manual focus, you can temporarily switch to auto focus in the following ways.

• Press the custom key to which [AF On] is assigned, or press the shutter button halfway.
• Press the custom key to which [Eye AF] is assigned.
• Touch the subject on the monitor. (when [Touch Func. in Shooting] under [Shooting Screen] is set to [Touch Focus] or [Touch Tracking])

To record movie audio in 4 channels

Attach a genuine Sony accessory that supports 4-channel and 24-bit audio recording to the Multi Interface Shoe of the camera.

Hint

• You can also assign the start/stop movie recording function to a preferred key.
• You can focus quickly while shooting movies by pressing the shutter button halfway down. (The sound of auto focus operation may be recorded in some cases.)
• You can change the settings for ISO sensitivity, exposure compensation, and focus area while shooting movies.
• The sounds of the camera and lens in operation may be recorded during movie shooting. To prevent sounds from being recorded, set [Audio Recording] to [Off].
• To prevent the operating sound of the zoom ring from being recorded when a power zoom lens is used, we recommend recording movies using the zoom lever of the lens. When moving the zoom lever of the lens, be careful not to flip the lever.
• When [Auto Power OFF Temp.] is set to [High], the camera can continue movie recording even when the temperature of the camera becomes high.

Note

• An icon indicating that data is being written is displayed after shooting. Do not remove the memory card while the icon is displayed.
• You cannot start recording a movie while writing data. Wait until data writing is completed and "STBY" is displayed before recording a movie.
• When playing back an XAVC S-I DCI 4K movie recorded with this camera on another camera of the same model, check the system software (firmware) version and the license of the camera. If the system software version is earlier than Ver.3.00 or the license has not been added to the camera, XAVC S-I DCI 4K movies cannot be played back.
• If the ⚠️ (Overheating warning) icon appears, the temperature of the camera has risen. Turn the power off and cool the camera and wait until the camera is ready to shoot again.
• The temperature of the camera tends to rise when shooting movies continuously, and you may feel that the camera is warm. This is not a malfunction. Also, [Internal temp. high. Allow it to cool.] may appear. In such cases, turn the power off and cool the camera and wait until the camera is ready to shoot again.

For the continuous shooting time of a movie recording, refer to "Recordable movie times." When movie recording is finished, you can record another movie by pressing the MOVIE button again. Recording may stop to protect the product, depending on the temperature of the product or the battery.

Still images cannot be captured during movie recording.

File Format (movie)

Selects the movie file format.

1. MENU → ? (Shooting) → [Image Quality/Rec] → [ File Format] → desired setting.

Menu item details

Intra/Long GOP is a movie compression format. Intra compresses the movie by frame, and Long GOP compresses multiple frames. Intra compression has better response and flexibility when editing, but Long GOP compression has better compression efficiency.

Note

• To play back XAVC HS 4K movies on a smartphone or computer, you need a device or software with high processing capability that supports the HEVC codec.
• When recording 4K movies, [ APS-C Shooting] becomes disabled and locked to [Off].
• If an APS-C size dedicated lens is attached, the edges of the screen may appear dark. When recording 4K movies with this camera, we recommend using a lens compatible with the 35 mm full-frame format.

Movie Settings (movie)

Sets the frame rate, bit rate, color information, etc.

1. MENU → ? (Shooting) → [Image Quality/Rec] → [ Movie Settings] → [Rec Frame Rate] → desired setting.
2. MENU → ? (Shooting) → [Image Quality/Rec] → [ Movie Settings] → [Record Setting] → desired setting.

Example of setting values

200M 4:2:2 10bit

(A): Bit rate (B): Color sampling (C): Bit depth

The higher the bit rate, the higher the image quality.

Color sampling (4:2:2, 4:2:0) is the recording ratio of color information. The more uniform this ratio is, the better the color reproducibility, and it is possible to remove colors neatly even when compositing using a green screen.

Bit depth represents the gradation of luminance information. When the bit depth is 8 bits, 256 levels of gradation can be obtained. When the bit depth is 10 bits, 1024 levels of gradation can be obtained. A larger value enables smoother expression from dark to bright areas.

[4:2:2 10 bit] is a setting that assumes that the recorded movie will be edited on a computer. The playback environment for [4:2:2 10 bit] is limited.

NDF: Records the time code in Non-Drop Frame format.

*1 Only when [NTSC/PAL Selector] is set to NTSC.

*2 The time code is based on 30 frames per second. However, a gap between the actual time and the time code will occur during extended periods of recording as the frame frequency of the NTSC image signal is approximately 29.97 frames per second. Drop frame corrects this gap to make the time code and actual time equal. In drop frame, the first 2 frame numbers are removed every minute except for every tenth minute. The time code without this correction is called non-drop frame.

The setting is fixed to [-] when recording in 24p/24.00p.

How to select the count up format for the time code (Time Code Run)

1. MENU → ? (Shooting) → [TC/UB] → [Time Code Run].

Hint

• With [REC Control] set to [On], STBY (STBY) is displayed when a recording command is ready to be sent to the external recorder/player, and REC (REC) is displayed when a recording command is being sent to the external recorder/player.
• Even when playing back a movie with 4 channels on a device connected to the HDMI terminal of the camera, the audio is output with the [4ch Audio Output] setting.

Note

• RAW movies cannot be recorded on the memory card of the camera.
• During slow-motion/quick-motion shooting, [Rec. Media dur HDMI Output] is locked to [On] and [RAW Output] is locked to [Off]. It is not possible to only output 4K movies to a device connected via HDMI without recording the movies on a memory card. It is also not possible to output RAW movies.
• When [Rec. Media dur HDMI Output] is set to [Off(HDMI Only)] or the camera outputs RAW movies, [HDMI Info. Display] becomes temporarily set to [Off].
• When [Rec. Media dur HDMI Output] is set to [Off(HDMI Only)], the counter does not move forward (the actual recording time is not counted) while the movie is being recorded on an external recorder/player.
• [REC Control] can be used with external recorders/players that support the [REC Control] function.
• When [Time Code Output] is set to [Off], you cannot set [REC Control].

• It is not possible to output audio in 4 channels to other devices connected via HDMI.
• The gamma is locked to S-Log3 during RAW output. You can reproduce contrast equivalent to that of the normal gamma by setting [Gamma Display Assist] to [On] and [Gamma Disp. Assist Typ.] to [Auto] or [S-Log3→709(800%)].
• While outputting RAW movies, you cannot use [Active] for [ SteadyShot].

Recordable movie times

The table below shows the approximate total recording times using a memory card formatted with this camera. The values may vary depending on the shooting conditions and the type of memory card used.

(h (hour), min (minute))

The recording times when [ Proxy Recording] is set to [Off].

The times shown are recordable times using a Sony memory card.

The duration of time available for movie recording varies depending on the file format/recording settings for movies, memory card, ambient temperature, Wi-Fi network environment, condition of the camera before you start recording, and condition of the charging of the battery.

The maximum continuous recording time for a single movie shooting session is approximately 13 hours (a product specification limit).

Note

The recordable time of movies varies because the camera is equipped with VBR (Variable Bit-Rate), which automatically adjusts image quality depending on the shooting scene. When you record a fast-moving subject, the image is clearer but the recordable time is shorter because more memory is required for recording. The recordable time also varies depending on the shooting conditions, the subject or the image quality/size settings.

Notes on continuous movie recording

• High-quality movie recording and high-speed continuous shooting require large amounts of power. Therefore, if you continue to shoot, the temperature inside the camera will rise, especially that of the image sensor. In such cases, the camera will turn off automatically because the surface of the camera is heated to a high temperature or the high temperature affects the quality of the images or the internal mechanism of the camera.
• The duration of time available for continuous movie recording when the camera records with the default settings after the power has been turned off for a while is as follows. The values indicate the continuous time from when the camera starts recording until the camera stops recording.

HD: XAVC S HD (60p 50M 4:2:0 8bit; when the camera is not connected via Wi-Fi; when using a CFexpress Type A memory card; when the monitor is open)

4K: XAVC S 4K (60p 150M 4:2:0 8bit; when the camera is not connected via Wi-Fi; when using a CFexpress Type A memory card; when the monitor is open)

• The duration of time available for movie recording varies with the temperature, file format/record setting for movies, Wi-Fi network environment, or condition of the camera before you start recording. If you frequently recompose or shoot images after the power is turned on, the temperature inside the camera will rise and the recording time available will be shorter.
• If the ⚠️ (Overheating warning) icon appears, the temperature of the camera has risen.
• If the camera stops movie recording due to a high temperature, leave it for some time with the power turned off. Start recording after the temperature inside the camera drops fully.
• If you observe the following points, you will be able to record movies for longer periods of time.
  - Keep the camera out of direct sunlight.
  - Turn the camera off when it is not being used.
