recordings on a TV, you need a PAL
system-based TV.
• Television programs, films, video tapes,
and other materials may be copyrighted.
Unauthorized recording of such materials
may be contrary to the copyright laws.
• Because of the way that the image device
(CMOS sensor) reads out image signals,
the following phenomena may occur.
– The subjects passing by the frame rapidly
might appear crooked depending on the
recording conditions. (This phenomenon may
be notable in displays having high motion
resolution.)
– Horizontal lines appear on the screen during
recording under fluorescent lights. The
phenomena can be reduced by adjusting the
shutter speed (p. 29).
– Images on the screen look horizontally
divided when a subject is lighted with a flash.
The phenomena can be reduced by using a
slower shutter speed.
On playing back movies
• Your camcorder is compatible with
MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 High Profile for
high definition image quality (HD)
recording. Therefore, you cannot play
back images recorded with high definition
image quality (HD) on your camcorder
with the following devices;
– Other AVCHD format compatible devices
which are not compatible with High Profile
– Devices which are not compatible with the
AVCHD format
• Movies made using this camcorder may
not play back normally on devices other
than this camcorder. Also, movies
recorded on other devices may not play
back properly on this camcorder.
Discs recorded with high definition
image quality (HD)
This camcorder captures high definition
footage in the AVCHD format. 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.
Save all your recorded image data
To prevent your image data from being lost,
save all your recorded images on external
media periodically. It is recommended that
you save the image data on a computer
using the supplied application software.
Format the recording media using
[MEDIA FORMAT] if images are not
recorded or played back properly
If you continue recording and deleting
images on recording media for a long time,
the files on that recording media may be
fragmented. As a result, you may not be
able to record and save images properly. If
this happens, save images on a separate
recordable media, such as a disc or
computer, then format the recording media
(p. 65).
Note on disposal/transfer
Even if you delete all data or format the
recording media on your camcorder or
computer, you may not delete data from the
recording media completely. When you
transfer the recording media or your
camcorder, it is recommended that you
delete the data completely using
commercially available data deletion
software to prevent the recovery of your
data. Also, when you dispose of the
recording media, it is recommended that
you destroy the actual body of the recording
media.

SEL/PUSH EXEC dial/B/b buttons (p. 17),
V/v/B/b/EXEC buttons (p. 67), and the
