AVCHD format

The AVCHD format has been developed for high-definition digital video cameras when recording an HD
(High-Definition) signal at the 1080i*
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. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format enables a high definition video
signal shot on a digital video camera recorder to be recorded on 8 cm DVD discs, hard disk drive, flash
memory, memory card, etc.
