VBR is an encoding system that automatically adjusts the bit rate according to the recording image.
• The recording times shown above are approximate and depend on the recording environment (i.e. lighting conditions).
Wind Cut
You can reduce wind noise when recording sound from the built-in microphone.
If “
Wind Cut: On
” is set, the low-frequency components in the sound picked up by the microphone will be cut off
during recording: This makes it easier to hear voice and sound during playback.
• Use the Wind Cut when recording in windy places such as a beach.
