quality. This camera uses the VBR (Variable Bit Rate) recording system and the available recording
time is shorter when recording a subject with rapid movements.

The frame rate is the number of frames per second.
‘WVGA’ cannot be set in INTELLIGENT AUTO Mode.
‘QVGA’ only can be recorded to the built-in memory.
