Die-cast Magnesium Body
The DY-70E camcorder features die-cast magnesium
bodies, which offer the benefits of exceptionally low
weight, but with improved
rigidity and durability for
professional use. It is also
ergonomically engineered
for maximum operator
comfort and utility. It also
incorporates engineering
innovations which sharply
reduce drum noise for
quiet operation.
Full Auto Shooting
The Full Auto Shooting Mode provides point-and-shoot
ease of operation, leaving the operator simply to zoom,
focus, and press the record button. Activating the Full Auto
Shooting sets the camera to the Auto Iris Mode, even if the
lens is set to manual. Also activated is Automatic Video
Level Control (ALC), along with Extended Electronic Iris
(EEI) and Full Auto White, which provide both variable gain
and variable
shutter. So the
operator can shoot
continuously from
a dark area to a
bright area without
changing gain, iris,
or ND filter.
Compact and Weighs just 15 lbs.
The compact DY-70E weighs only 6.8kg, including lens,
viewfinder, battery pack, and tape, and that weight is
carefully balanced for effortless hand-held shooting.

Other Professional Features
D-9 Video Tape
The DY-70E captures and stores up to 124 minutes of high-
resolution on a high-
density 1/2-inch
tape which employs
an advanced metal-
particle formulation.
Tape running speed
is 57.8 mm/s with a
long recording time
of 124 minutes. No
other digital media
offers the length of
record/playback
time and durability of D-9 video cassettes.
Black Stretch/Black Compress
The Black Stretch/Black Compress function enhances or
compresses reproduction of black areas on the screen.
Highlight Chroma Processing
The DY-70E has built-in Highlight Chroma Processing to
maintain colour saturation in highlights. The result is
natural colour reproduction even in bright highlight portions
of the picture.
Detail Correction
A user control is provided to switch the mixture of in-band
and out-band correction, to adjust the picture sharpness
and produce a pleasing picture.
Tape/Battery Remaining Indicator
The Tape/Battery Remaining Indicator means you always
know exactly how much tape and battery power remains, so
that you can change tape and battery before it is too late!
Built-in Phantom Microphone Power
Phantom power can be supplied to optional microphones
through XLR connectors and switched off to each channel
when not in use.
Time Code Reader/Generator and Time
Date Generator
Two SMPTE-standard time code generators digitally record
independent time code streams in the sub-code area. The
main time code generator can be preset by the operator or
slave-locked to an existing time code on the tape, or to an
external master time code generator for shooting with more
than one camera. The secondary time code automatically
records time code data corresponding to date and time of
day. D-9 editing decks can accurately read both time
codes at any speed.
