Note
The maximum continuous recording time for a movie is approximately 13 hours.
The 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.
