Basics Recording motion pictures ■■About the recording format for recording motion pictures This unit can record motion pictures in either AVCHD or MP4 formats. AVCHD: You can record high definition quality images with this format. It is suitable for viewing motion pictures on a high-resolution TV or for saving them to a disc. AVCHD Progressive: The [60p] in [FHD] is a mode that allows motion pictures to be recorded at 1920 x 1080/60p, the highest quality* that complies with the AVCHD standard. Recorded motion pictures can be saved and played back using this unit or "PHOTOfunSTUDIO". *This means the highest quality for this unit. MP4: This is a simpler video format best used when extensive editing is needed, or when uploading videos to WEB services. ■■About the compatibility of the recorded motion pictures Motion pictures recorded in [AVCHD] or [MP4] may be played back with poor picture or sound quality or playback may not be possible even when played back with equipment compatible with these formats.
