What is bit rate
¢1
This is the volume of data for definite period of time, and the quality becomes higher
when the number gets bigger. This unit is using the "VBR" recording method. "VBR"
is an abbreviation of "Variable Bit Rate", and the bit rate (volume of data for definite
period of time) is changed automatically depending on the subject to record.
Therefore, the recording time is shortened when a subject with fast movement is
recorded.
What is Mbps
¢2
This is an abbreviation of "Megabit Per Second", and it represents the speed of
transmission.
Select this format to record HD (high definition) video for
playback on your HDTV using an HDMI connection.
Select this format to record standard definition video for
playback on your PC. It can be recorded using less
storage when there is not much space left on the memory
card or when you want to attach the motion picture to an
e-mail.
