*1: After recording for 9 hours, the DVD video camera/recorder will automatically stop recording: After approx. one minute, it will automatically restart recording (no scene will be recorded during this recording pause). As a result, multiple thumbnails will appear for the scene recorded continuously for more than 9 hours, even with one- time recording of that scene.

*2: Variable bit recording (recording of more than 7 hours on HDD or more than 18 minutes on disc may be possible because the transfer rate varies automatically between approx. 3 - 10 Mbps)

*3: Fixed bit rate: Approx. 6 Mbps

*4: Fixed bit rate: Approx. 3 Mbps

Note:

If you record in XTRA mode at high temperatures, the DVD video camera/recorder will heat up and the maximum transfer rate will be limited to approx. 6 Mbps, so the best quality will not be obtainable.
