EnjoyingHigh-DefinitionVideowithyour DVDCamcorderRecording HD video with your DVD camcorder may seem a bit complicated at first.Actually, you need to make just two simple choices and you can start recording rightaway. The first choice is what disc type - or physical media - to use. The secondchoice is what image quality - and disc specification - to use.Let us walk you through it.Decide what type of DVDdisc is best for youThere are rnany types of DVD discs but this carncorder uses only thefollowing three types of 8 cm mini DVD discs: DVD-R, DVD-R DL andDVD-RW. Read the differences between them and select the disc that bestfits your needs.DVD-R BestforCompatibilityDVD-Rs can be recorded only once - you cannot edit or delete the recordings. On theother hand, these discs are comparatively cheaper.DVD=R DL Best for RecordingTimeDual-layered discs allow writing up to 80% rnore data (approx. 2.6 GB) on a singlerecording side. However, you cannot edit or delete the recordings.Dual-layered discs have two recording layers. Thecamcorder will record on Layer 1 and then continue to Scene2 JLayer 2. During the playback of a recording spanning _Scene1 _d mboth layers, you may notice a brief stop (about 1 I...............................I_rd % _ce ......second) at the point where the camcorder switches tothe second layen In SD quality the switch to Layer 2will break the recording into 2 separate scenes.DVD-RW BestforReusabilityRecordings made on a DVD-RW disc can be edited or deleted. Also, the disc can beinitialized. Initializing a DVD-RW disc clears all the recordings and restores the freespace on the disc to its initial value so you can use the same disc again.
