This unit is using the "VBR" recording method. "VBR" is an abbreviation of "Variable Bit Rate", and the bit rate (volume of data for definite period of time) is changed automatically depending on the subject to record. Therefore, the recording time is shortened when a subject with fast movement is recorded. - 149 -
