Sony, Canon And Panasonic Hd Camcorder Supported Video Formats Analyzed
With the arrival of digital HD television age, the digital companies Sony, Canon, Sharp and JVC have created HDV, a new high resolution video format compressed in MPEG-2. Some authorized digital cameras and camcorders shoot videos in MOV format. The MOV formatted file with lossy compression is slightly higher in image effect than AVI file.
"The family-use digital camcorders nowadays often apply MiniDV format, whose horizontal resolution reaches as high as 500 above. The standard recording time of a MiniDV tape is 60min, while it can be prolonged to 90min if choosing LP mode." according to a resource provided by Digiarty.

The company deems it important to know what the common digital camcorder video formats are, so it concludes a few general ones, such as DV, HDV, MVC, AVCHD, MPEG-2, H.264 and MPEG4. It thinks that the majority of consumer camcorders in current market apply AVCHD format except JVC. It further gathers the detailed information on how to convert MPEG2 to H.264, MPEG to DVD/MP4/iPad, H.264 to MPEG/MKV, MP4 to AVI/WMV/MP3, AVCHD to AVI/MOV and so on in the resource.
It all boils down to one simple fact that the formats of each camcorder are preset by the system and cannot be changed by ourselves. By setting to "HQ", the video formats output by HD-camcorders will be very sharp on HDTVs (4K Ultra HD included), but are not optimized for LCD TVs. If needing to edit or post-process the camcorder videos, or play them on different devices and players, one is suggested to convert the videos by use of WinX HD Video Converter Deluxe for Windows or for Mac.
