Tips

You can record movies of a maximum of 9,999 scenes.

The maximum continuous recording time of movies is approximately 13 hours.

Your camcorder uses the VBR (Variable Bit Rate) format to automatically adjust image quality to suit the recording scene. This technology causes fluctuations in the recording time of the media. Movies containing quickly moving and complex images are recorded at

a higher bit rate, and this reduces the overall recording time.
