DVCAM FEATURES
200,000 dot LCD Monitor
The DSR-PD150 has a high-resolu-
tion color LCD monitor for viewing the
recording picture, or checking the
playback picture on location. With its
large screen, it is helpful in setting the
menu or audio recording level, as well
as monitoring the camera and audio
status while mounted on a tripod.
Manual Functions
In addition to the automatic functions, the DSR-PD150 has various
functions for manual adjustment.
Operational Features
Convenient Features for Professional Results
Index Marking
An Index can be marked while recording with the camera or
recording from an external video source.
Time Code Preset
The time code can be preset using any number in H/M/S/F, which will
be one of the methods to number a tape. The time code mode can
be selected between "rec-run" or "free run." User bits can also be set.
Long Recording Time
The power consumption of the DSR-PD150 is only 4.7 W (with
viewfinder). Combined with the optional NP-F960 InfoLITHIUM™
battery pack, it can record for up to eight hours.
Title Function
When using a cassette with Cassette Memory, the titles can be set and
recorded in the Cassette Memory. This information is not superimposed
on the video signal, but is displayed during playback. It can be used
as an index later. The DSR-PD150 also has a Tape Title function that
displays a title on the tape during the first five seconds of recording.
Fader
There are five fading modes: Black Fade (IN/OUT), Monotone Fade
(fade from Black & White to color), Overlap (last image becomes a
still image and overlaps into the new scene), Wipe and Dot.
