This camcorder captures high definition footage
in the AVCHD format. Using the enclosed
PC software, high definition footage can be
copied onto DVD media. However, 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.
When you access the camcorder from the
computer, use the built-in “PlayMemories
Home” software. Do not modify the files or
folders on the camcorder from the computer.
The image files may be damaged or may not be
played back.
Operation is not guaranteed, if you operate the
data on the camcorder from the computer.
The camcorder automatically divides an image
file that exceeds 2 GB and saves the parts as
separate files. All image files may be shown as
separate files on a computer, however, the files
will be handled properly by the import function
and the playback function of the camcorder or
the “PlayMemories Home” software.
Use the built-in “PlayMemories Home” software
when you import long movies or edited images
from the camcorder to a computer. If you use
other software, the images may not be imported
correctly.
When you delete image files, follow the steps
on page 54.
