Panasonic promotes the AVCHD Lite
Panasonic uses the launch of FT1 and TZ7 to promote high quality compressed video standard, structured joint forces with Sony Corporation. Standard dates back to AVCHD 'in 2006, created to accompany the HDV and MiniDV, l ' acronym means AVCHD Advanced Video Codec High Definition. The Lite version promoted on modern cameras, allows to reach higher level of compression, with the same image, when compared with the standard HDV. The codec used is MPEG-4 AVC (H.264).
