1080/60p in MP4 (35 Mbps) and AVCHD Progressive (28
Mbps) helps ensure high-quality capture of moving subjects
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The VIXIA HF R72 camcorder gives you high-quality
whether you're capturing MP4 or AVCHD files. 1080/60p
captures twice the a of information as 60i, and with images
captured at a rate of up to 60 frames per second, diagonal noise
is virtually eliminated so even fast-moving subjects show up
crisply with motion and patterns clearly recorded. This greater
sense of detail and faithful rendering of moving edges, plus
enhanced color and fine tonal gradation, helps you take advantage
of all that Full HD has to offer. AVCHD Progressive records at a
bit rate of up to 28 Mbps, which is the highest in the AVCHD
standard, and MP4 files are captured at a bit rate of up to 35
Mbps, so regardless of the format you're shooting or viewing,
image quality is incredibly high.
