Your 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.
Movies containing quickly moving and complex images are recorded at a higher bit rate, and this reduces
the overall recording time.
