Introduction
Enjoying High-Definition Video
Preserve your most treasured memories, be it unforgettable scenery or
cherished moments spent with family and friends, with high-definition video
recordings of a quality second only to actually being there.
What is High-Definition Video?
High-definition video (HDV) allows you to record
video of unparalleled high quality on regular
miniDV tapes. HDV is composed of 1,080
horizontal lines –that is more than twice the
number of horizontal lines and approximately 4
times the number of pixels in standard-definition
TV broadcasts– resulting in eye-catching colors
and richly detailed video recordings.
How to play back your HDV recordings?
On a high-definition TV (HDTV) ( 66)
HDV recordings will be played back in their original high quality.
On standard definition TVs ( 67)
HDV recordings will be down-converted to match the resolution of the TV set.
What is the Cinema Mode?
Give your recordings a cinematic look by using the [ CINE MODE]
recording program ( 43). Combine this recording mode with the high-
definition, 25 fps progressive frame rate [ HDV(PF25)] ( 36) to get
the enhanced effect of the 25p Cinema Mode.
