What is bit rate
This is the volume of data for a definite period of time, and the quality becomes higher when the number gets
bigger. This unit is using the “VBR” recording method. “VBR” is an abbreviation for “Variable Bit Rate”, and the
bit rate (volume of data for definite period of time) is changed automatically depending on the subject to record.
Therefore, the recording time is shortened when a subject with fast movement is recorded.
