Image Size]: L: 20M When [
Aspect Ratio] is set to [4:3]*
Aspect Ratio] is set to other than [4:3], you can record more pictures than shown above.
The table below shows the approximate maximum recording times. These are the total times for all movie files. Continuous shooting is possible for approximately 29 minutes (a product specification limit). The maximum continuous recording time of an MP4 (12M) format movie is about 15 minutes (limited by the 2 GB file size restriction). (h (hour), m (minute)) Capacity Record Setting
60i 24M(FX)/50i 24M(FX)
24p 24M(FX)/25p 24M(FX)
• The recordable time of movies varies because the camera is equipped with VBR
(Variable Bit-Rate), which automatically adjusts the 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.
Notes on using the camera
Functions built into this camera • This manual describes 1080 60i-compatible devices and 1080 50i-compatible GB devices. – To determine whether your camera supports the GPS function, check the model name of your camera. GPS-compatible: DSC-HX60V GPS-incompatible: DSC-HX60 – To check whether your camera is a 1080 60i-compatible device or 1080 50icompatible device, check for the following marks on the bottom of the camera. 1080 60i-compatible device: 60i 1080 50i-compatible device: 50i • This camera is compatible with 1080 60p or 50p-format movies. Unlike standard recording modes up to now, which record in an interlacing method, this camera records using a progressive method. This increases the resolution, and provides a smoother, more realistic image. • While aboard an airplane, set [Airplane Mode] to [On].
On GPS-compatible devices (DSC-HX60V only)
• Use GPS in accordance with regulations of countries and regions where you use it. • If you do not record the location information, set [GPS On/Off] to [Off].
Avoid rough handling, disassembling, modifying, physical shock, or impact such as hammering, dropping, or stepping on the product. Be particularly careful of the lens.
Notes on recording/playback

It may cause a malfunction of the camera. • If moisture condensation occurs, remove it before using the camera. • Do not shake or strike the camera. It may cause a malfunction and you may not be able to record images. Furthermore, the recording media may become unusable or image data may be damaged.
Do not use/store the camera in the following places
• In an extremely hot, cold or humid place In places such as in a car parked in the sun, the camera body may become deformed and this may cause a malfunction. • Under direct sunlight or near a heater The camera body may become discolored or deformed, and this may cause a malfunction. • In a location subject to shaking or vibration
• Near a location that generates strong radio waves, emits radiation or is strongly magnetic
In such locations, the camera may not properly record or play back images. • In sandy or dusty places Be careful not to let sand or dust get into the camera. This may cause the camera to malfunction, and in some cases this malfunction cannot be repaired.
Notes on the screen and lens
• The screen is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology, and over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, some tiny black and/or bright dots (white, red, blue or green) may appear on the screen. These dots are a normal result of the manufacturing process, and do not affect the recording. • Take care that your fingers or other objects are not caught in the lens when it is operating.
• Do not carry the camera by the flash unit, or use excessive force on it. • If water, dust or sand get into the open flash unit, it may cause a malfunction. • Take care that your finger is not in the way when pushing the flash down.
On camera’s temperature
Your camera and battery may get hot due to continuous use, but it is not a malfunction.
