*1: Recorded in 1,920 x 1,080 resolution. Movies recorded using other recording modes are recorded in 1,440 x 1,080 resolution.
*2: At the time of purchase, the built-in memory contains about 70 MB of music files (background music) and 5 MB of image files (image mix frames).
*3: A single scene can be recorded continuously for 12 hours; at that point, the camcorder will stop for about 3 seconds before resuming recording.
NOTE
- Movies recorded in MXP mode cannot be saved on AVCHD discs. Use an external Blu-ray Disc recorder to copy MXP movies onto Blu-ray discs.
- The camcorder uses a variable bit rate (VBR) to encode video so the actual recording times will vary depending on the content of the scenes.
- The camcorder retains the last setting used even if you set the camcorder to
mode.
