This section deals with the commonly used High Definition recording formats currently available. We are not attempting to rank these in terms of some being "better" than others. What gives you the "best" pictures for the money available is a very subjective issue. Whilst it's relatively easy to compare technical attributes from camera to camera and say that a bit rate of 440 Mbps gives much more information than say 100 Mbps, this simply isn't the whole story. If only it were that simple!
