Notes
-
A telephoto image is produced when [VGA 3M] image size is selected.
-
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.
