CAUTION

Scenes recorded in MXP mode cannot be saved onto AVCHD discs using the optional DW-100 DVD Burner. Use the supplied software ImageMixer 3 SE to back up such scenes.
The camcorder uses a variable bit rate (VBR) to encode video so the actual recording times will vary depending on the content of the scenes.
The camcorder retains the last setting used even if you set the camcorder to < (Dual Shot) > mode.
