Excerpt from Amazon.com. Read your manual and your question makes no sense. Why do you want to copy from HDD to SD when the camera doesn't seem to have an mini SD card?
Everio Features
All 2009 Everios make sharing and watching videos easier than ever. New for this year is the One Touch Export function that allows Everio videos to be imported into iTunes and loaded into an iPod or iPhone. All 2009 Everios also offer One Touch DVD burning and the One Touch Upload function that JVC introduced to users in 2008 as a new and convenient way to upload videos to YouTube.
To use any of the three functions, simply connect Everio to a PC using the supplied USB cable. Then, the user chooses one of three buttons on the Everio: UPLOAD, EXPORT, or DIRECT DVD. Pressing the button will launch the appropriate Windows PC application that comes bundled with Everio, and the user simply follows the simple on-screen prompts. With just a few mouse clicks the process of uploading to YouTube, exporting to iTunes, burning to disc or transferring to an external hard disk drive will be completed. For uploading to YouTube, the user can perform an in-camera edit of any length video to fit the 10-minute YouTube limit.
For disc based archiving, there is an alternative to using a PC. JVC offers the CU-VD50 Direct DVD Burner/Player as an option, which allows burning of Everio videos to a DVD disc without having to use a PC.
The new Everio MediaBrowser software supplied with all Everio models is a Windows application providing an easy-to-search calendar-type graphical interface for indexing and finding video files. Thumbnail images of recorded videos and stills are superimposed on the calendar so itâs easy to see when any scene was recorded. The Everio MediaBrowser also allows easy playback, simple cut editing, and "Decomotion" to spruce up recorded footage with animated graphics for upload to YouTube. It also supports Export to iTunes, Upload to YouTube, burning to disc or transferring to HDD.
Another new feature found on all Everio camcorders is Digest Playback, which offers an easy and entertaining way to check the content residing on Everioâs HDD or SD/SDHC card. The function automatically selects highlight scenes from among the recorded content using JVCâs proprietary algorithm and plays back what looks like a "coming attractions" trailer for a movie. Sixty minutes of footage is condensed into five minutes of highlight scenes.
Other Everio features have been enhanced for 2009. Laser Touch Operation has been updated to allow control of zooming and recording using either the Laser Touch scroll bar or buttons next to the LCD screen, as well as by the standard zoom lever and REC button. And as before, Laser Touch makes it easy to browse through thumbnail images of recorded scenes and access menu selection. Power-linked operation, long offered by JVC, goes a step further this year. Simply opening the LCD monitor automatically opens the built-in lens cover and powers up the camcorder. Closing the LCD also closes the lens cover and shuts down the power. With Quick Restart, recording can start in about one second after the LCD is re-opened.
In addition to performance and convenience, the 2009 Everio line offers plenty of style and shooting comfort. A new design features elegant curves, a silver-framed LCD and a comfortable angled grip with a new dual use strap. The strap can be used in the usual camcorder fashion, supporting the userâs hand when shooting, or it can be extended and used as a wrist strap like the type on most digital still cameras.

Help on Prosumer Camcorder choice.?
Q. I need some advice on making a choice for a future purchase. I'm not too knowledgeable on the subject but I know I want a good quality lens and both SD and HD recording capability. Price range is up to $10,000. Although i'd rather not go that high but i'm open to alternatives depending on specs and capabilities. It would be used mostly for independent film projects but also the occasional Youtube video.
I currently don't have an up to par computer, but will be getting one for editing purposes with more than adequate hardware while using mostly Adobe software. I was considering a Canon XH A1 for a good price/performance ratio but found out it does not record in SD. I want HD capability for future bigger projects but also SD to speed up the process for smaller ones, I don't know if that would matter if I have the computer hardware to handle HD sufficiently anyway as i'm willing to spend 3,000+ on the computer so i'm not worried about that part but I want to make sure the camcorder is a good investment. And I don't want to downconvert HD footage as I have seen examples of the quality actually being less than standard SD footage, hence the HD/SD option. Anyway, any enlightenment/ experienced opinion would be appreciated. Thanks

Answer
10k is not "Retarted," (Nice spelling Retard) some professionals need features that rack the price of the equipment up quite a bit. I own both a Sony v1u and a Canon eos 7d for working in high definition. The fact is, the year is 2010, so i'd say forget the tape cameras. My choices for you that really usher in the future of film making for under 10k (without going 3d) are the Canons (Rebel T2i, 7D, and 5D mark 2), the panasonic AG-AF100 (just announced, and has real high expectations), or the RED Scarlet (God only knows when this thing will get released, but the specs look insane. 2/3 inch sensor, interchangeable nikon lens mount, up to 120 frames per second... and all at 3k resolution (3072Ã1620 pixels) *drool*). All of these cameras do variable frame rate shooting so i am pretty sure they would likely have an SD option (I know that all of the Canons do SD). If not however, Adobe premire or after effects or whatever you edit with would no doubt offer an easy, streamlined 3rd party HD->SD downconvert plugin that will keep you footage looking nice, it'll just be about doing your homework and finding out which gives you the best result.
I know rigs such as this one (with a 7d) http://files.mknayman.com/webshot.jpg are being used to shoot primetime television on shows like House, and the great think about only spending 2 thousand dollars on the camera body is that you can use the rest of the money to spend on lenses, viewfinders, lights, tripods, screens, mics, and software for a new quad-core computer.
I do love my V1u (I got it for $2200 lightly used) and it does give you the capability to stick in a MiniDV tape and shoot SD or HD real quick and easy (as do a lot of sony professional HDV cameras) but the 1:1 capturing time especially really undermine the beauty of it's footage when i can go from shoot to edit on the 7D in a matter of seconds.
Different from the cameras I mentioned above (with the huge sensors and interchangeable lenses and beautiful shallow depth of fields (film look)) the readily available sony EX-1 and EX-3's (and now their new NX-CAM). They do not offer in-camera SD shooting but control a huge portion of the sub-10k semi-professional video market.
So yea, there's my advice. I wish I had another 10k to splurge on more cameras...
