What's the difference between mode SP and LP in recording a video?
On my camcorder.





SP means standard play or short play.





LP mean low play or long play.


Either way SP should give better quality. Some times the different is barley noticeable. I just stick with the default setting on my camcorder.





My camcorder also has HP which stands for Harry potter and it does magical things on that setting...





Just kidding. It also has one more higher quality setting setting.

LP = 60mins

LP = Long 90 minutes





Standard is better picture because the video isn't compressed.





LP is good for shoots longer than an hour. However, expect some drop frames.
