This unit records in CBR in HG mode. CBR is an abbreviation for Constant Bit Rate. CBR recording does not vary the bit rate (amount of data in a fixed time).

This unit records in VBR in HN/HE mode. VBR is an abbreviation for 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 subject with sharp movements is recorded, the recording time is reduced.
