b Notes
• The recordable time may vary depending on the
recording conditions, subjects, and [REC SET]
(p. 72).
• The number in ( ) is the minimum recordable
time.
z Tips
• You can record movies of a maximum of 3,999
scenes with high definition image quality (HD),
and 9,999 scenes with standard definition image
quality (SD).
• Your camcorder uses the VBR (Variable Bit
Rate) format to automatically adjust image
quality to suit the recording scene. This
technology causes fluctuations in the recording
time of the media. Movies containing quickly
moving and complex images are recorded at a
higher bit-rate, and this reduces the overall
recording time.
• Bit-rate (movie + audio, etc.), number of pixels,
and aspect ratio of each recording mode of
movies are as follows.
– High definition image quality (HD)
