_ NOTES
• Recording in LP mode gives you a
longer recording time; however,
depending on the condition of the disc
(long usage, imperfections, etc.) the
picture and sound recorded in LP mode
may be distorted. We recommend using
XP+ orXP mode for important
recordings.
• The camcorder uses a variable bit rate
(VBR) when encoding the video data so
the actual recording times will vary
depending on the content of the scenes.
Selecting the Aspect Ratio of your
Recordings (16:9Widesereen or4:3)
When recording in high definition, the
scenes recorded will have an aspect
ratio of 16:9 (Widescreen). In standard
definition, you can select the aspect
ratio of your recordings to match that of
your TV.
