What
is
the
AVCHD
format?
The AVCHD format is a high definition
digital video camera format used to record
an HD (high definition) signal
of
either the
1080i specification
*1
or the 720p
specification*2 on internal hard disk drive,
using efficient data compression coding
technology. The MPEG-4 AVCIH.264
format is adopted to compress video data,
and the Dolby Digital or Linear PCM
system
is
used to compress audio data.
The MPEG-4 A
VC/H.264 format
is
capable
of
compressing images at higher efficiency
than that
of
the conventional image
compressing format. The MPEG-4 A
VCI
H.264 format enables a high definition
video signal shot on a digital video camera
recorder to be recorded on 8 cm DVD discs,
internal hard disk drive, flash memory,
"Memory Stick PRO Duo," etc.

your
camcorder

In addition to HD (high definition) image

which is about the half size
of
a standard
"Memory Stick," with your camcorder.
However, we do not guarantee the
operation
of
all types
of
"Memory Stick
Duo" on your camcorder.
