DCF (Design rule for Camera File system), compatible with Exif Ver. 2.3 *1, JPEG compression
*1 This camcorder supports Exif 2.3 (also called "Exif Print"). Exif Print is a standard for enhancing the communication between camcorders and printers. By connecting to an Exif Print-compliant printer, the camcorder’s image data at the time of shooting is used and optimized, yielding extremely high quality prints. |
