Sony DSC-WX60 Black: Notes on using the camera

The number in ( ) is the minimum recordable time.

• The recordable time of movies varies because the camera is equipped with VBR

(Variable Bit Rate), which automatically adjusts image quality depending on the

shooting scene. When you record a fast-moving subject, the image is clearer but

the recordable time is shorter because more memory is required for recording.

The recordable time also varies depending on the shooting conditions, the subject

or the image quality/size settings.
