Recording time chart
The recording time available on a CF card depends on the size of the card in MB, the recording type (.mp3, .mp2 or PCM), the bitrate of the recording and if recording in mono or stereo.
This Recording time chart lists approximate recording times based on those factors.

These figures are an average of 4 cards of various sizes and manufacturers.
All times are approximated record times for the PMD570/PMD670.
Different media manufacturers allow more or less space for error correction and such on their respective products.
