Use a UHS Speed Class 3 card to record 4K photos.
When using an SDHC memory card, you can continue recording without interruption even if the fi le size exceeds 4 GB, but the motion picture fi le will be divided
and separate fi les will be saved for playback.
When using an SDXC memory card, even if the size of a motion picture exceeds 4 GB, you can record it as a single fi le.
When recording 4K photos, the angle of view is narrower.
If the surrounding temperature is high, or a 4K photo is recorded continuously, or the temperature of the camera rises, [ ] may be displayed and recording may
stop halfway through to protect the camera. Wait until the camera cools down.
