≥ The recordable times shown in the table are approximations.
≥ This unit records in VBR (Variable Bit Rate). VBR recording automatically varies the bit rate (amount
of data in a fixed time) depending on the subject being recorded. This means if a recording with a lot
movements is recorded, the recording time is reduced.
≥ Mosaic-pattern noise may appear on a playback image in the following cases.
jWhen there is a complicated pattern in the background
jWhen the unit is moved too fast
jWhen a subject with sharp movements has been recorded
(Particularly if it has been recorded in [LP] mode.)
≥ If you record still pictures on an SD card, the recordable time available for the motion picture will
become shorter.
