Creating a disc with 
one touch
(One Touch Disc Burn)
You can save movies and photos on a 
disc. Movies and photos recorded on your 
camcorder that have not yet been saved 
with One Touch Disc Burn function can 
be saved on a disc automatically. Movies 
and photos are saved on a disc with their 
recorded image quality.
High definition image quality (HD) movies 
(the default setting) will make a high definition 
image quality (HD) disc. You cannot play a high 
definition image quality (HD) disc on DVD 
players.
Creating a Blu-ray disc is not available with One 
Touch Disc Burn.
To create a standard definition image quality 
(SD) disc from high definition image quality 
(HD) movies, import movies to a computer first 
(p. 33), and then create a standard definition 
image quality (SD) disc (p. 36).
Install “PMB” beforehand (p. 28), however, do 
not start “PMB.”
Connect your camcorder to the wall outlet (wall 
socket) using the AC Adaptor supplied for this 
operation (p. 14).
With One Touch Disc Burn function on your 
camcorder, you can save movies and photos 
recorded on the internal memory only.
