If a single scene exceeds 4 GB during motion picture recording, recording
continues as a separate scene.
Recording fast-moving objects or repeatedly writing on the same SD card
numerous times shortens recording time.
Mosaic-like interference may be generated on playback screens in the
following circumstances:
