The following table shows the approximate number of seconds worth of

the actual amount of data recorded may be shorter.

Notes
• After selecting the Loop Rec mode, immediately changing the Loop
Rec time or performing playback or recording review, the picture data
stored in memory before this operation are made to be unrecordable.
This means that when you press the VTR START button or VTR
button on the lens, the previously stored picture data will not be
recorded.
• During playback or recording review, the picture data is not stored in
the MSDW-903's memory. Picture data corresponding to the duration
of playback or recording review will not be in memory and will not be
recorded to tape.
