*1 DCF is the abbreviation for Design rule for Camera File system, established by the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Association (JEITA).
*2 The DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) is a format for recording on storage media information such as the number of frames and copies desired for printing of images taken on the digital camera.
*3 Exif Ver2.2 is an industry standard established for file formatting of digital cameras.
*4 Based on the image information taken from the image sensor, the image is interpolated in real time, recording and generating image pixels.
*5 For these models 60fps is actually 59.94fps, 30fps is actually 29.97fps, 240fps is actually 239.76fps, and 600fps is actually 599.4fps.
*6 Amount of pictures based on CIPA standards. When using a Sandisk SD Memory Card (2GB) and bundled Lithium-ion battery. Videos are when filming in Full-HD mode. Playback is when in continuous playback. Through actual operation, time may vary.
*7 Figure projects time and amount of stills taken which will fill the recording medium. Amount varies by memory card maker, type of photo subject and photographic conditions.
*8 Continuous recording time for one video clip is approximately 10 seconds. No audio is recorded.
*9 Audio Memo: Maximum 13h00min. for one file, but will save file and continue recording longer, generating a new file after 13hrs., similar to the effects on the video after reaching 4GB
