hi def hdd camcorder
Sunday, August 29th, 2010Is the JVC Everio Mg30u a Hi-def camcorder?
I recently purchased this camcorder and I never knew what HDD stood for, I figured it meant Hi-Def, but now I realized that it means Hard Disk Drive, so does that mean that this camera is High Definition as well?
Since you figured out HDD = Hard Disc Drive and not High Definition, perhaps reading the manual might be in order.
I hate to break it to you, but that camcorder does standard definition only. No high definition.
Link to the manual:
http://resources.jvc.com/Resources/00/00/93/LYT1468-001C.pdf
Refer to page:
6: “This camera records video in MPEG2 format compliant with SD-VIDEO format.”
61: Video/Audio format: SD-Video
And no reference to HDV or AVCHD which are the consumer camcorder high definition file formats…
