General outline
This unit is a multi-format VTR capable of recording and
playing back HD signals (1080i/59.94 Hz, 1080i/50 Hz,
720p/59.94 Hz, 720p/50 Hz) in DVCPRO HD-LP* format
using a small cassette tape 1/4 inch wide, HD (DVCPRO
HD-LP/DVCPRO HD) and SD (DVCPRO50/DVCPRO)
recorded in DVCPRO format as well as conventional
consumer DV/DVCAM tapes.
A down-converter as a standard feature verifies all tapes
using analog composite signals and SD SDI output.
Furthermore, output signals converted to 1080/24PsF can
be obtained from the 720/24p over 60p source recorded with
the variable frame rate camera. These signals can be used
for cinema as well.
Similarly, each of the following output signals can be
obtained.
z 720/25p over 60p sources can be converted to 1080/25
PsF or 576i format output signals.
z 720/50p over 60p sources can be converted to 720/50p,
1080/50i or 576i format output signals.
By mobilizing highly efficient digital compression technology
to assure a high picture quality, this VTR significantly
minimizes deterioration in the picture quality and sound
quality during the dubbing process.
It features a compact size of 4U and a lightweight design
that enables it to be carried around with ease, and to be
readily installed in a 19-inch rack.
The equipment is set up using an interactive system
whereby the operator manipulates the function buttons on
the front panel and observes the menu screens on the front
panel’s LCD monitor.
In terms of the editing features, this VTR is capable of both
assemble editing and insert editing.
* DVCPRO HD-LP has the same format as DVCPRO HD
EX described in the operation manual for our camera
recorder.
