 NOTE
• The above recording time is for normal recording. Recording
in native mode will extend recording time depending on
system mode.
For details, refer to [List of recording formats and functions]
(page 45).
• Use of 32 GB, 16 GB and 8 GB P2 cards will provide 1/2, 1/4
and 1/8, respectively of above recording times.
• The indicated capacities include a management area so the
total area available for recording is somewhat smaller.
Splitting clips recorded on P2 cards
This camera will automatically generate additional clips
for a continuous recording on an 8 GB or higher capacity
P2 card when the recording exceeds the durations given
below. Even so, a P2 device will handle such clips as a
single clip in thumbnail operations (display, delete, recover,
copy, etc.). Such recordings may be handled as separate
clips by nonlinear editing software or a PC.
