Introduction
This camera recorder enables recording of HD format
images on an SDHC card, and also playback of these
images.
Recording in QuickTime File Format
Recording can be made in QuickTime file format of Final Cut
Pro, a video editing software from Apple Inc.
You can edit the recorded clips directly with Final Cut Pro.
Recording on SDHC Memory Card (Class 6)
The absence of mechanisms with the use of SDHC (class 6)
as recording media brings about increased operation
reliability. In addition, the improved compatibility with
computers enables high-speed data transfer to NLE as well
as reduction of operating costs.
35 Mbps High Image Quality Mode
This camera recorder is equipped with a 35 Mbps high
quality mode, in addition to the HDV mode bit rate (19/25
Mbps).
Dual Media Slots
Continuous recording is possible by loading two SDHC cards
into the dual media slots, thereby allowing a long recording
time.
Wide Variety of Recording Formats
This camera recorder supports various HD formats (1080i,
1080p, 720p) and can be used under various environments.
It also supports 1440x1080 and 1920x1080 full resolution in
the 1080 format.
Adoption of MPEG-2 Long GOP for Easy
Editing
Shortens editing and output time by adopting MPEG-2
codec, which puts less stress on the editing computer.
High Resolution via New [Triplex Offset]
2.5kx1.4k pixels are generated with the new Triplex Offset
and a high resolution of more than 900 horizontal lines and
1000 diagonal lines is achieved using the proprietary front
processing.
New [Spot Meter] Function
The brightest and darkest positions on the screen are
automatically detected and displayed together with the
dynamic range. As this is a pre-gamma value, it allows you to
understand the lighting ratio and prevents overexposure or
underexposure in shooting scenes where lighting is
controlled.
New Viewfinder
With a high resolution of 852x480 in 0.425 inches, the new
viewfinder is now more robust and enables more accurate
focusing.
High Resolution LCD Monitor
Equipped with a 4.3 inch 800x480 large LCD monitor, both
shooting precision and viewing performance are improved.
Updated User Interface
The sophisticated user interface allows more intuitive
operations. Thumbnail display is also available for you to
select a recorded clip for easy playback.
Compact Shoulder Style
By inheriting the compact shoulder style from the GY-HD100
series which is widely accepted in the industry, more stable
shooting can be done on this camera recorder while its
weight remains similar to that of a handheld camera
recorder.
Lens Interchangeability
Existing lens can be used, thus saving on costs. You can
also select the most appropriate lens according to your
shooting requirements.
Professional Batteries
Batteries such as Anton Bauer and IDX batteries that are
used in the broadcast industry can be used in this camera
recorder.
Support for Wide Variety of Output
Supports industrial output such as HD-SDI output and
IEEE1394 output.
DV Transcode Output
In consideration of the usage in SD environment, IEEE1394
output can also be encoded in DV format.
