“Exif” is a file format for still images, 
established by the JEITA (Japan 
Electronics and Information Technology 
Industries Association). Files in this 
format can have additional information 
such as your camcorder’s setting 
information at the time of recording.

The unique pixel array of Sony’s ClearVid 
CMOS sensor and image processing 
system (new Enhanced Imaging 
Processor) allows for still image resolution 
equivalent to the sizes described.
