(Unit: Approximate minutes of images)

1GB ≒ 1,000,000,000 bytes : Actual formatted capacity may be less as the internal firmware uses a portion of the memory.

• The figures in the table may differ depending on the actual recording conditions and subject.

• The higher the quality and resolution, the more memory is used.

•Recording at a lower resolution and quality increases the recording time, but the image quality may suffer.

•The bit rate automatically adjusts to the recording image. Accordingly, the recording time may vary.

•Memory cards bigger than 32GB may not operate normally.

•The recording length of a Time Lapse REC may vary depending on settings.

•A memory card that is used to store a video can have un-writable areas, which may result in reduced recording time and free memory space.

•The maximum size of a video (H.264/AVC) file that can be recorded at one time is 1.8GB.

•The camcorder can store up to 9,999 files of videos and photos in one memory card.

•Video (or photo) images recorded by other equipment are not playable on this camcorder.

•Features in the tables above marked with * are available in the 8GB SMX-F53 and16GB SMX-F54 models only.

34• Recording in the 16:9 aspect ratio will use more memory than the 4:3 aspect ratio. You can select the desired LCD display aspect ratio for recording or playback (16:9 Wide/4:3 aspect ratio). page 48
