AVCHD-Lite, which is a subset of the
AVCHD format popularized by hard disk camcorders from Sony, Panasonic, and
Canon, uses h.264 video coupled with AAC audio for recording movies. AVCHD Lite
video is currently used by Panasonic DMC-ZS3, Panasonic DMC-FZ3, Sony, Cannon
AVCHD Lite Camcorder, etc.
The main differences between AVCHD Lite and the regular
AVCHD: a maximum resolution of 1280 x 720p in AVCHD Lite compared to 1920 x
1080p in regular AVCHD and a less-intensive compression method - both of which
make the format more suitable for less powerful camera hardware.
