etc. Before starting recording, verify the recordable
duration for normal recording (List of recording rate and
recording times: P83). The formatting can be modified
using "Recording settings". (P39)

can be verified. (P43)

verified. If overwrite is set, and the recording
area is full, the oldest video is overwritten by
