      CAUTION
      • AVCHD discs containing scenes recorded in MXP mode cannot be created with the optional DW-100 DVD burner. Use the software on the supplied Video Tools CD-ROM 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 mode.
      • At the time of purchase, the built-in memory contains about 170 MB of music files.
