    What winds up on the SD recorded media, not the HDMI out. Is it 8 bit 4:2:0, or something else at highest level? Where do you find this info on Spec sheet?

    Thanks in advance.

    That’s correct. The files that are recorded to the SD card are 8bit, 4:2:0 at about 25 Mbps. I don’t believe that it is on the spec sheet rather it is a part of the AVCHD spec itself. At this bit rate in H.264, 8bit 4:2:0 is what it’s going to be.
