Discs recorded with HD image quality (high definition) This camcorder captures high definition footage in the AVCHD format. DVD media containing AVCHD footage should not be used with DVD based players or recorders, as the DVD player/ recorder may fail to eject the media and may erase its contents without warning. DVD media containing AVCHD footage may be played on a compatible Blu-ray Disc player/recorder or other compatible device. Save all your recorded image data To prevent your image data from being lost, save all your recorded images on external media periodically. It is recommended that you save the image data on a disc such as DVD-R, etc. using your computer. Also, you can save your image data using a VCR, or a DVD/HDD recorder (p. 66).

In this case, an indicator appears on the LCD screen and the viewfinder (p. 99).

If you cannot record/play back images, perform [MEDIA FORMAT] If you repeat recording/deleting images for a long time, fragmentation of data occurs on the recording media.
