The AVCCAM Series Makes Video Packaging and Internet Distribution*1 Smooth and Easy. The tapeless design means lower total costs, and unlike tape, AVCHD files require no digitizing*2 and can be directly and quickly transferred*3 to storage in a Windows PC or Mac. This makes it easier to use motion images in new IT applications*4 like content production, internet distribution*1 and source material archiving. AVCHD's direct editing also saves time and effort in TV program production. And AVCHD means lower costs for both media and equipment maintenance. *1: To distribute AVCHD files on the web, you may need to use a video distributing service that is operated by other web publishers supporting AVCHD. For real-time web distribution, a real-time video encoder that is supplied by other manufacturers may be required. *2: Editing may require conversion to an intermediate codec, depending on the editing software. The conversion speed varies depending on the hardware specifications of the Windows PC or Mac, the software used for converting, and the file format being converted. *3: Maximum speed: 22 MB/s (Using a Class 10 SDHC Memory Card. Speed depends on the hardware specifications of the Windows PC or Mac.) Some computers may not recognize the SDXC/SDHC Memory Card. If that occurs, use an SDXC/SDHC Memory Card Reader. *4: AVCHD-compatible software is required. The minimum system requirements for using the software must also be satisfied. AVCHD Nonlinear Editing Compatible with many existing HD editing systems, AVCHD files can be transferred at high speed by using the USB 2.0 interface to connect the AVCCAM Series or an SDXC/SDHC/SD Memory Card reader to a Windows PC or Mac. This dramatically improves productivity when compared with the time-consuming task of digitizing. * Please see our website for information on the interoperation of nonlinear editing systems. Click on "Non-linear Compatibility Information." For more detailed information, please see the website of the relevant manufacturer.
