/2-inch IT type Power HAD CCD
The DSR-300/300P Digital Camcorder uses
1
/2-inch IT
type Power HAD CCDs. It excels in reduction of
smear, sensitivity and picture quality.
• Smear: –110 dB
• Sensitivity: F11.0 (at 3200 K, 2000 lux)
• S/N: 62 dB (DSR-300) or 60 dB (DSR-300P)
Sophisticated image processing
TruEye™ processing makes possible the following
performance features. This digital signal processing
has brought reproduction of natural colors to the level
achieved by the human eye.
DynaLatitude™
Enables detailed adjustment of contrast control in each
pixel in accordance with a histogram of luminance
signal levels.
DCC+ (dynamic contrast control plus)
Prevents white breakup when shooting a high intensity
subject, and also prevents color faults in high intensity
subject.
Black stretch and compress
Enables control of luminance signal levels in black
areas without changing the hue.
Variety of detail corrections
• Skin detail function: this function gives a slightly
softer appearance to the subject’s face. The target
skin color can be automatically set.
• Black halo correction
• Red/green vertical detail correction: this function
performs vertical detail compensation for both red
and green signals.
• Horizontal detail frequency control
New Functions boost operability
EZ (easy) mode function
When there isn’t time to check the camcorder settings,
simply press the EZ mode button to start the auto
adjustment function using standard settings. There is
no need to lose a shot for lack of setup time.
EZ (easy) focus
Press the EZ focus button before shooting to ensure a
quick and accurate focus.
Dual pixel readout (DPR
1)
)
When the gain is set to either 18 dB or 24 dB, the gain
setting can be doubled (6 dB up) without increasing
the noise level.
Programmable gain
The amount of gain relative to the GAIN switch setting
(H, M, or L) can be programmed as –3 dB, 0 dB, 3
dB, 6 dB, 9 dB, 12 dB, 18 dB, 18 dB+DPR, 24 dB,
24 dB+DPR and hyper gain.
Hyper gain
Hyper gain (36 dB (=30 dB+DPR), or about 60 times
greater than 0 dB) can be easily set via one switch
setting. This can also be done from remote equipment.
Auto tracing white balance (ATW)
This function automatically traces the white balance,
which constantly changes as lighting conditions
change. Auto tracing white balance is especially
useful when there is no time to manually adjust the
white balance or when shooting moves between indoor
and outdoor locations.
Total level control system (TLCS)
Even if the incoming light exceeds the range in which
the standard auto iris can control exposure, the auto
gain control (AGC) or auto exposure (AE) backs up to
ensure proper exposure.
Recording time (REC TIME) display
Recording time can be displayed in either of the
following modes.
• Total recording time for all cuts (TTL

)
• Total recording time for current cut (DUR

)
