The displayed available space includes the management area, and so the space available for recording is
smaller than this.
Concerning the division of clips recorded on P2 cards
When using a P2 card of at least 8 GB in this camera, if the continuous recording time for a single
session exceeds the time shown in the following table, recording will be automatically resumed as a
different clip. When performing a thumbnail operation (display, delete, restore, copy, etc.) on clips using
P2 cards, you can operate them as a single clip. When you are using non-linear editing software and a
PC, for example, the clips are displayed individually.
Recording Format Recording times *1 The 720P/25PN formats are not included in the
DVCPRO HD recording format.
DVCPRO HD*1 approx. 5 min.
DVCPRO50 approx. 10 min.
DVCPRO/DV approx. 20 min.
When using any other types of cards, the driver installed in the camera-recorder may need to be updated.
