Hi. I just bought the tx7 and not sure if i should record in mp4 format or stick with avchd . I find mp4 is much easier to play like on my mobile phone for example whereas not possible with avchd . Do you still find mp4 quality good ?i also notice mp4 records lower quality of audio or maybe i am wrong. Thanks very much
@ryanspianoaccount MP4 is more format friendly as you mention. I shoot in AVCHD (which also happens to be youtube friendly) to get the best possible quality with the option to convert to MP4 later on my computer. If you know you won't go through the hassle of that and care more about immediate compatibility, then shoot the MP4.
@iamsunshinegirl510 It supports regular optical zooming while video recording using the same zoom switch toggle on the top right hand side with the camera facing your subject. Audio records when zooming and is nearly imperceptible in the recording.

how do you zoom during recording? and when you are recording, does the audio get shut off when zooming in or no
