Notes • Movies recorded with the [60i 24M(FX)/50i 24M(FX)]/[24p 24M(FX)/25p 24M(FX)] setting in [Record Setting] are converted by "PlayMemories Home" in order to create an AVCHD recording disc. This conversion can take a long time. Also, you cannot create a disc with the original image quality. If you want to keep the original image quality, you must store your movies on a Blu-ray Disc. • To watch 24p/25p movies on a TV, you need a TV that is compatible with 24p/25p. If you use a noncompatible TV, the movies are converted to 60i/50i and output to the TV. z Checking 60i or 50i To check if your camera is a 1080 60i-compatible device or 1080 50i-compatible device, check for the following marks on the bottom of the camera. 1080 60i-compatible device: 60i 1080 50i-compatible device: 50i Index 87GB
