This means that the recording times will be shorter when fast-moving subjects have been recorded.Times displayed include time needed for processing, etc. – actual available recording times will be•slightly shorter.The camera is capable of continuous recording for a maximum of 12 hours.•Recording can be restarted even if it was paused due to shortage of space.•Even for the same card, the recording time differs depending on conditions such as the recording format•and recorded images.Mosaic-like noise may appear on the playback screen under the following shooting conditions:•When there are complex patterns in the backgroundāWhen the camera is moved in large motions or when it is moved very quicklyāWhen a fast-moving subject has been recorded (and especially when HE has been set as the recording mode)āWhen an SD memory card is formatted, the entire data including still images recorded on the card is•erased and cannot be restored. Save any valuable data on your personal computer before formatting.Please use an SD memory card class of SD speed class 6 or above when using the VFR function.•Recording cannot be performed with less than SD speed class 6.
