<Notes>

OThe actual recording time will be slightly longer than the figure indicated by the recording time mode.

OIn the frame recording mode, it takes twice as long for the cameras to be switched.

OWhen the recording time mode is set to 3H, recording will be performed automatically in the high picture quality mode even if the standard picture quality mode has been set.
