About the AVCHD format

What is the AVCHD format?
The AVCHD format is a high definition digital video camera format used to record a high
definition (HD) signal using efficient data compression coding technology. The MPEG-4
AVC/H.264 format is adopted to compress video data, and the Dolby Digital or Linear PCM
system is used to compress audio data.
The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format is capable of compressing images at higher efficiency than
that of the conventional image compressing format.
Hint
As the AVCHD format uses a compression coding technology, the picture may be
disturbed in scenes where picture, field angles or brightness, etc. change drastically, but
