Sony HVR Z7U NTSC Digital Camcorder:
R 65 889.00
The Sony HVR-Z7U is an HDV handheld camcorder featuring
a lens mount. Previously unheard of for such a compact unit, the HVR-Z7U
incorporates the convenience of a handheld camcorder with the
flexibility of larger ENG cameras.
The camera can also record directly to compact flash cards, via the
camera's supplied memory recording unit. Combined with Sony's entire
family of HDV products, the HVR-Z7U is a great camcorder for almost any
production, including documentaries, news, low-budget movies, music
videos and industrials.
Sony HVR-Z7U is Camcorder with 1/3" type 3 ClearVID CMOS imagers,
inter-changeable bayonet mount lens system and dual record-to-tape and
record-to-flash memory capability.
Features:
| Interchangeable Lenses: Users get the best
of both worlds with this innovative camcorder. The HVR-Z7U's
unique design is the first of its kind; a handheld camera with the
interchangeable lens capability. Whether you are filming a movie
or shooting a documentary, the HVR-Z7U has it covered |
| ClearVID 3CMOS Technology: Sony's ClearVID
sensors are positioned at a 45° angle. Since each pixel is
positioned at this angle the result is far clearer diagonal lines.
Images will appear crisper, without the apparent
"jaggies" that often plague video signals |
| Record to Compact Flash: The camera comes
with an attachable recording unit, allowing users to record HDV
and DV to CompactFlash cards. With cards getting larger and larger
in capacity, the ability to take advantage of tapeless workflow
while still using cheap media is a welcome addition |
| High Definition on MiniDV Tapes with HDV:
The HDV format, used in the HVR-Z7U allows high definition
recording on standard MiniDV tapes. This is accomplished by using
the very popular MPEG-2 compression technique used in many
applications, including DVDs and satellite television |
| 24p Capability: In 24p mode, images from the
CMOS can be 2:3 pulldown-converted and recorded onto tape in the
standard 60i HDV format. The tape can then be played back or
edited using an ordinary HDV system |
| HDMI Output: Many consumer products are
adopting High Definition Media Interface (HDMI) connections for
transmitting uncompressed digital HD video signals. Sony has upped
the ante by incorporating this into the already extensive array of
video output choices on the HVR-Z7U |
