This unit records in VBR. 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.

If the recorded capacity for a single scene exceeds 4 GB, the extra part will be
recorded as a separate scene.
