Notes on time required for recording
When recording from Handycam
®
(HDD/Memory Stick or DVD) connected
via USB cable, the length of time required depends on the REC mode (XP, HQ,
SP, or LP) used to shoot the video and the number of scenes the Handycam
®
contains. In general, videos shot in higher image quality modes take longer to
be recorded onto a disc. The following provides a general estimate of the time
required to record a 1-hour video containing one scene onto a disc.
