Thanks C.H. your response.

According to the manual of E-M5 (P.67) said that there are many modes for
video shooting, including P, A, S, M. However, it seems the camera will go
to P mode automatically while shooting video.

Have discussed with my friend who experienced video shooting with digital
camera. He said the shutter speed is fixed at 1/30" when shooting video for
E-M5. Hence, the camera changed the aperture setting automatically to
achieve enough lighting for the video.

The EXIF of the still picture is F8, 1/13, ISO1600

As I set F8, A mode, auto ISO for the video shooting, therefore, the camera
changed the aperture to F4 or F2.8 caused the DOF is not fully covered the
panel.



Cheers,
Michael
