File Format

You can set the recording method used to record movies.

1. MENU 1 [File Format] desired mode

AVCHD

AVCHD movies are recorded. Sets the recording method to AVCHD, which is suitable

for viewing smooth video images on a high-definition television. Blu -ray discs, AVCHD

discs and DVD-Video discs can be created using the software “PlayMemories Home.”

When you create AVCHD discs from movies recorded in [60p 28M(PS)]/[50p 28M(PS)]

or [60i 24M(FX)]/[50i 24M(FX)], it will take time as the image quality must be converted.

To save [60p 28M(PS)]/[50p 28M(PS)] or [60i 24M(FX)]/[50i 24M(FX)] movies without

converting the image quality, use Blu -ray discs. [Details]

MP4 MP4 (AVC) movies are recorded. Sets the recording method to MP4, which is suitable

for WEB uploads and e-mail attachments. No discs can be created from MP4 movies,

even if you use the software “PlayMemories Home.”
