What is so special about recording on flash memory? Your videos and photos are recorded in the built-in memory or on a memory card (SD or SDHC card2) using AVCHD specifications3. Recording on flash memory means that there are no moving parts in the recorder unit of the camcorder. To you, it means a camcorder that is smaller, lighter and faster. In fact, using the Quick Start function ( 37) you can open the LCD panel and start recording within approximately one second. If your high-definition TV features an SD memory card slot and supports AVCHD specifications, you can easily play back your high-definition recordings directly from the memory card ( 39). Refer to the TV's instruction manual for more details.4 What is Cinema Mode? Give your recordings a cinematic look by using the [ CINE MODE] recording program ( 45). Combine this recording program with the 24 fps progressive frame rate [ PF24] to get the enhanced effect of the 24p Cinema Mode. 2 For usable memory cards, see Recommended Memory Cards ( 31). 3 AVCHD is the new standard for recording high-definition video. With AVCHD specifications the video signal is recorded using MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 compression and the audio signal is recorded in Dolby Digital. 4 Discs created with the optional DW-100 DVD Burner that contain recordings in MXP mode cannot be played back on AVCHD-compatible devices. Use the DW-100 to play back such discs ( 86). 7
