[REC FORMAT]
Switch the picture quality of the motion pictures to record.
The frame rate and the recording method will vary depending on the recording format.
[PS 1080/60p]:
Set the recording format to 1080/60p. (Frame rate: 60p)
[PH 1080/60i]/[HA 1080/60i]/[HE 1080/60i]:
Set the recording format to 1080/60i. (Frame rate: 60i)
[PH 1080/30p]*1:
Set the recording format to 1080/30p. (Frame rate: 30p)
[PH 1080/24p]*2:
Set the recording format to 1080/24p. (Frame rate: 24p)
[PM 720/60p]*3:
Set the recording format to 720/60p. (Frame rate: 60p)
[SA 480/60i]*4/[CS 480/60i]*4:
Set the recording format to 480/60i. (Frame rate: 60i)

*1 Motion picture recorded in [PH 1080/30p] is converted to 1080/60i.
*2 If a motion picture is played back or recorded when this unit is connected to a TV with an HDMI cable (optional), it will be output to the TV in 1080/60i. (It will be recorded in 1080/24p.)
*3 If a motion picture is recorded when this unit is connected to a TV with an HDMI cable (optional), it will be output to the TV in 1080/60i or 480/60i. (It will be recorded in 720/60p.)
*4 The image aspect ratio can be changed using [ASPECT]. (l 97)
≥ Smoother motion picture can be recorded with the higher value for the frame rate. [i] and [p] of the frame rate means interlace and progressive respectively.
Interlace (interlacing scanning)
Video signal that divides the effective scanning lines to half and send them alternatively
Progressive (progressive scanning)
High density video signal sending the effective scanning lines simultaneously (It will be higher quality image than the interlace)
≥ It can record with highest quality image in this unit when set to [PS 1080/60p].
≥Recordable time using the battery (l 14)
≥Please refer to page 124 about approximate recordable time.
