(DV) out
DV (Digital Video) is the standard for consumer digital video. DV complies with the same IEEE1394 interface
standard as the DFW Series. Thanks to data-compression technology, the transmission speed of DV is
approximately 25 Mb/s. This figure is about 1/5 of the transmission speed of the DFW Series (no compression).
DV can be connected to a PC and various application software is available for DV. Users can therefore enjoy the
high quality of DV compression with the excellent line-up of the DVCAM Series. The DXC-C33/C33P is equipped
with a DV output terminal so that images can be recorded into an i.LINK interface-equipped VTR with no quality
deterioration.
This feature is first to be introduced to small 3-CCD cameras.
Why was the DVCAM format Born?
The DVCAM format is optimized for professional editing, based on and maintaining cross play with the DV format.
Digitization
• High-quality picture and sound
• Superb dubbing quality
• Unique functions provided by compression technology
High-performance editing
capabilities for professional use
• SMPTE/EBU time code
• RS-422A interface
• Newly developed mechanism
The DVCAM format was developed to meet the following key demands:
• Digitization (trend from analog to digital)
• High-performance editing capabilities for professional use
• Full compatibility with the DV format
CONCEPT - What is the benefit of the DVCAM for the DXC-C33/C33P?
* i.LINK stands for IEEE-1394-1995 standards and their revisions.
Note: Sony VAIO computers are checked with Sony DV products, but not with DVCAM, concerning the i.LINK interconnection.
Some VAIO application software may not work with DVCAM.
