DVCAM—Digital Innovation
Digitization is opening up new avenues to success in many business areas. Nowhere is this more true
than in professional video production, where evolving digital technology is bringing proven advances
in image quality and equipment versatility as well as reducing operating costs.
DVCAM was born in 1996 as an extension of the consumer DV format, with which it is compatible.
With its superb picture quality, excellent editing capabilities and multigeneration performance, DVCAM
is the perfect choice of format in the highly competitive world of professional video.
The DSR-1P is a dockable recorder for a camcorder, offering outstanding performance in the acquisition
process. When the DSR-1P is combined with a Sony DXC-D30P or DXC-D30WSP Digital
Camera, it becomes the DSR-130P Digital Camcorder, providing a totally digital signal
path and perfect ClipLink™ operation. For complete versatility, the DSR-1P
incorporates both a Pro 50-pin analogue and a Pro 76-pin digital interface,
this dual interface enabling connection to both analogue and digital
cameras. The DSR-1P features a dual-size cassette mechanism that accepts
both mini and standard size cassette tapes without any special adaptor - a
first in the history of dockable recorders. With its superb performance and
operating flexibility, the DSR-1P meets all the requirements of video professionals.
