About the recording format for
recording motion pictures
You can select from either AVCHD or iFrame
recording formats to record motion pictures
using this unit. (l 43)
AVCHD:
You can record high definition quality images
with this format. It is suitable for viewing on a
large format TV or for saving to disc.
iFrame:
This is a recording format suitable for
playing back or editing on Mac (iMovie’11).
