Movie image quality is a standard that determines the detail, smoothness, and clarity
of a movie during playback. Shooting with the high-quality (HD) setting will result in
better image quality, but it also shortens the amount of time you can shoot.
• The 16:9 aspect ratio is available only when “HD” is selected as the image quality.
• Memory capacity (Movie recording time you can shoot) will be affected by the
quality settings you configure (page 167).
