What is the A VCHD 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 this is not a malfunction.
