Performance cannot beguaranteed for all memory cards.**This camcorder supports Exif 2.2 (also called “Exif Print”). Exif Print is a standard for enhancing thecommunication between camcorders and printers. By connecting to an Exif Print-compliant printer, thecamcorder’s image data at the time of shooting is used and optimized, yielding extremely high quality prints.
