-AVCHD discs created using the optional DW-100 DVD Burner can be played back only with AVCHD-compatible DVD players or Blu-ray Disc players. Do not insert an AVCHD disc into a DVD player that is not compatible with AVCHD specifications as you may not be able to eject the disc.

•For important information on handling your discs, refer to

DW-100Cautions on handling.

NOTES

•If a scene does not fit entirely in one disc, it may be divided and con- tinue on the next disc.

•When the camcorder contains a large number of scenes to be saved on discs, it may take a long time for the connection to the DVD burner (step 2 above) to be completed. For best performance, we recommend limiting the number of scenes to be saved to 500 or fewer scenes. (With 500 scenes, it will take approximately 3 minutes to complete the con- nection.)

•In addition to the JPG image files, Photo DVDs contain a slideshow of all the photos saved (each played back for approximately 3 seconds).

/ Saving Movies onto Standard-Definition Discs (DVD)

You can convert your high-definition video recordings into standard definition and save them onto standard DVDs. These are ideal for sharing your videos with family and friends since, unlike AVCHD or Blu-ray discs, standard DVDs can be played back on most DVD players and computer DVD drives.

You can complete the conversion to standard definition in the cam- corder and then use the supplied software ImageMixer 3 SE to save the converted scenes and burn them onto DVDs in your computer.

Your computer must have a preinstalled DVD drive with writing capabil- ities.
