≥The recording is in high definition picture quality no matter what recording mode is used to record.

≥Maximum continuously recordable time for one scene: 12 hours

≥The recording is paused once when the recording time for one scene exceeds 12 hours, and the recording will automatically resume after a few seconds.

≥This unit records in VBR (Variable Bit Rate). VBR recording automatically varies the bit rate (amount of data in a fixed time) depending on the subject being recorded. This means if a recording with a lot movements is recorded, the recording time is reduced.

≥Use time in the row of 4 GB in above table as a guideline for the time that can be copied onto one DVD disc (4.7 GB).

≥Recordable time using the battery (l 24)

≥Mosaic-pattern noise may appear on a playback image in the following cases. jWhen there is a complicated pattern in the background

jWhen the unit is moved too fast

jWhen a subject with sharp movements has been recorded (Particularly if it has been recorded in HE mode.)

≥Repeated recording and deletion of motion pictures may reduce the usable time for recording on an SD card or an HDD. In that case, format the SD card or the HDD using this unit. Since all data recorded on the SD card or the HDD will be deleted once the media has been formatted, save important data to your PC etc before formatting the SD card or the HDD.

∫Back up data periodically.

The HDD is temporary storage. In order to avoid erasing data due to static electricity, electromagnetic waves, breakage, and failures, back up the data to a PC or DVD disc. (l 100, 112)
