Note on BD-R/DVD-R
This camcorder writes control data to a disc in order to automatically make
recording adjustments when first recording after:
• a disc is inserted, and
• the power is turned on while the disc is in the camcorder.
If there is not enough space on the control area of a disc, recording may not be
possible even if the data space for recording movies is not full. To prevent this,
avoid performing operations described above more than 49 times per disc.
