3.18. 8bit Recording Mode
Since the image sensor of 12 bits specification is being used for this product, it is usually recorded at
12 bits. By using 8 bits Recording Mode Mode, it is possible to record by 8 bits.
When data is recorded in the 8-bit mode, the amount of data is smaller than in 12-bit mode.
Therefore, it is possible to record for a longer amount of time.
8bit Recording Mode setting can be made with the “Remote controller (optional)" or PFV.
