• The movie bitrate is the volume of movie data recorded per second. Variable bitrate (VBR) encoding is used to automatically adjust the bitrate depending on the subject being recorded. When recording movies of subjects with large amounts of motion, the file size increases.
• The frame rate is approximately 30 frames per second for all options.
• For information about recording time, see A84.
