Desired Recording Mode For The Sony Hdr-cx700v

I recently purchased the Sony HDR-CX700V and am a little confused as to which Recording Mode I should use. I bought the camera for the high resolution, but while reading reviews, I noticed that some Recording Modes don't enable you to use Pinnacle Studio 15 to make movies on your computer and burn to either DVD or Blu-ray. Which Recording Mode should I use? The default setting on the camera is Standard HQ. Will that Recording Mode be sufficient to produce high resoulution movies that I can use with my Pinnacle Studio 15 program, or should I select a different Recording Mode. Your response will be greatly appreciated.
