FS-C Portable DTE Recorder 1
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a Focus Enhancements’ FS-C portable
direct-to-edit (
DTE ) disk recorder. The FS-C is the first portable DV/
HD disk recorder with DTE technology designed for hand held
camcorders in a small, rugged and shock proof chassis.
If you edit with applications from Adobe, Apple, Avid,
Canopus, Matrox, Pinnacle, Sony, Ulead, and many others,
Focus Enhancements' DTE Technology is the only solution that
can save hundreds of hours a year by recording clips to disk in
your non-linear editor’s ( NLE ) native file format.
DTE Eliminates Pre-edit Processing
The FS-C DTE disk recorder eliminates the need to capture,
transfer or convert video clips before editing. The FS-C is a
stand-alone device that records DV25, HD 720p, and HD 1080i
video to its disk drive as a NLE native file. In HD Recorder
mode it has the capability of capturing to disk HD 720p and
1080i video from HDV camcorders equipped with a 1394
interface. For most DV and many HDV compatible NLE
systems, when the disk drive is connected to a computer the
clips are immediately available for editing. Shoot, connect, and
edit: it is now that easy.
These capabilities make the FS-C the perfect companion for the
Canon HDV camcorders.
