Since its introduction in 2003, the Sony XDCAM™ series - an optical disc-based acquisition system - has been offering tremendous benefits of revolutionary file-based operations to production workflows for many types of video productions. The XDCAM series comprises a standard-definition (SD) lineup with 2/3-inch CCD camcorders and decks, plus a high-definition (HD) lineup with 1/2-inch CCD camcorders and decks. Now, Sony is further expanding the XDCAM series by introducing the new PDW-700 2/3-inch CCD camcorder.
The PDW700 camcorder is equipped with three 2/3-inch type CCDs - a newly developed Power HAD FX progressive CCD with 1920 x 1080 effective pixels. Stunning-quality HD images can be captured by this high-resolution CCD in conjunction with the 14-bit A/D converter and advanced digital signal processing incorporated in the camcorder.
The PDW-700 offers striking-quality HD recording at a data rate of up to 50 Mb/s using the MPEG-2 4:2:2P@HL compression technology,“MPEG HD422”. They also provide multi-format recording flexibility including 1080i, 720P, and SD,which comes with HD/SD conversion and cross conversion between 1080i and 720P. |
