The HVR-V1U will pave the way into a new world of HD video productions. Overview How it’s done Our professional HDV products offer exceptional quality - only made possible by Sony’s cutting-edge technical expertise. Our world-class semiconductor manufacturing technologies have enabled the development of a new CMOS sensor that offers the image quality to satisfy the most demanding professionals. Employing a 3-chip system, the 3 ClearVid CMOS sensor offers high-resolution images with rich and natural colors. Coupled with advanced technology such as the Sony Enhanced Imaging Processor and a high-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T lens, the full power of this imaging system is realized in the HVR-V1U camcorder. "Ready-to-edit" with the HVR-DR60 hard disk recording unit Video professionals can be confronted with tight production schedules, and balancing time with creativity can become a dilemma. The Sony HVR-DR60 frees you from such dilemmas by allowing instant editing of your video footage. The HVR-DR60 offers a unique hybrid concept, in which video material can be recorded to the hard disk and the camcorder tape simultaneously with time code synchronized. Simply connect the HVR-DR60 to a PC running compatible nonlinear editing software. The computer will immediately recognize the recorded data files for a dramatic improvement in editing efficiency. With the HVR-DR60 hard disc unit, the time-consuming digitizing process is a thing of the past. Another huge appeal of this Hybrid configuration is its improved efficiency in archiving operations. With your source footage available on tape and hard drive, you can immediately store the source tape in your video library without making copies to other media. Your work footage is already there on the HVR-DR60 hard disk. Further more, the HVR-DR60 has been developed by Sony as a perfect companion for the HVR-V1U. Sony’s HDV product lineup has been further expanded, giving you the freedom to be even more productive. Offering HD quality in a compact, lightweight, and mobile design Progressive 1080/24p -- progressive shooting The HVR-V1U camcorder provides 1080/24p acquisition with 2:3 pull-down recording - compatible with existing Sony professional HDV equipment. The 24p scan signals are recorded on tape as 60i signals through means of 2:3 pull-down. Similarly, a 30p scan signal is recorded as a 60i signal by dividing each frame into two fields. This allows your 24p and 30p scan footage to be played back or fed to an editing suite using the thousands of units of Sony HDV equipment already in use throughout the world. Leading manufacturers are scheduled to release nonlinear editing software compatible with this 24p scan mode. These nonlinear software will be able to detect the 2:3 sequence and remove the 2:3 properly. This way, the editor will be able to create a 24p project, edit precisely at 24fps (23.98 progressive frames per second) throughout the process, and output the final master as: A sequence of still images at 24 fps, for film out A 23.98 YUV (uncompressed) HD file, for output to CineAlta products A 23.98 SD MPEG2 file, for the highest quality DVD mastering possible A 60i HDV file (2:3 added back in), for creating an HDV edit master A 60i YUV (2:3 added back in, uncompressed) HD or SD file, for outputting to Digital Betacam or HDCAM for broadcast High-resolution 1080 progressive scan Thanks to the 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor and Enhanced Imaging Processor technology, the HVR-V1U supports 24p (progressive) scan, the frame rate of film and 30p (progressive) scan modes, in addition to typical 60i. The signals generated by the 3 ClearVid CMOS sensor are processed in the progressive domain as 1920 x 1080p signals, allowing high-resolution progressive footage to be captured. Devices Enhanced imaging processor This special imaging processor in the HVR-V1U has been developed to bring out the full power of the 3 ClearVid CMOS sensor by handling the video signal output in 1920x1080p and 4:2:2 color space. Its unique signal processing separates the image data into its texture and brightness components and processes these independently. This makes it possible to reproduce images with a high level of clarity, from the very darkest to brightest areas of the image. The signals from the four surrounding photodiodes are used to reproduce one more signal with the Enhanced Imaging Processor technology. Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T lens with extra-low dispersion glass The HVR-V1U camcorder is equipped with a high-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T lens. Featuring a 62mm filter diameter, this lens offers a multilayer coating, extra-low dispersion glass, aspherical glass and excellent spectral characteristics that result in reduction of chromatic aberration. 20x optical lens and wide conversion lens The HVR-V1U camcorder’s built-in 20x optical zoom lens enables long-range shots of sports events or wild animals with the stunning visual impact of HD images. Moreover, the digital extender increases the zoom ratio to approximately 30x. The optional VCL-HG0868K 0.8x wide conversion lens uses the bayonet mount system for instant attachment or detachment. Combining these lens features, you can effortlessly capture close-up or wide-angle shots as your video production requires. 3 ClearVid CMOS sensor The ClearVid CMOS sensor has been developed using the most advanced technologies in the semiconductor industry. Thanks to the unique grid arrangement of the photo diode sensors, in which each is rotated by 45 degrees, sensor resolution has been optimized while maximizing the photosensitive surface area. Combining this imaging system with its associated Enhanced Imaging Processor technology, has enabled the use of a sophisticated interpolation scheme original to Sony and entirely different from conventional spatial offset techniques. The 3 ClearVid CMOS sensor system is the core element enabling the 1920x1080p video signals. Also, unlike CCD sensors, there is no vertical smear when shooting high-intensity subjects, which further reduces shooting condition constraints. Wide dynamic range Features like shadowed faces and overbright hair are clear and natural-looking. Even with mixed dark and bright areas in the same shot, the whole picture appears natural thanks to the wide dynamic range. With HVR-DR60 (not included) Small size and perfect balance The HVR-DR60 hard disk drive measures just 79 x 44 x 100 millimeters (W x H x L) in size, and weighs only 227 grams (excluding battery). Using the supplied shoe adapter, the unit can be mounted on the cold shoe of the camcorder. Also, by use of the optional bracket VCT-1BP, it can be mounted on the rear of the camcorder, where it will not affect the mobility of the compact camcorder. HDD Smart Protection Three advanced technologies are used for reliable recording performance of the HVR-DR60: Rubber shock absorbers hold the HDD unit in place, preventing external shock being transmitted when the HVR-DR60 chassis is subject to impact. A 3G sensor detects gravitational acceleration in three dimensions, so however the HVR-DR60 may be oriented, the sensor can detect if it has been dropped -- in which case power to the HDD is shut off and the recording heads are retracted from the disk platters, pausing read/write operations. This protects the HDD from being damaged when the unit is accidentally dropped and subject to strong impact. The third feature is a buffer memory, capable of storing approximately 14 seconds of video and audio footage. Recordings are made by first writing the data to the buffer, and then writing the buffer data to the disk platters. Consequently, if the 3G sensor temporarily interrupts disk writes, video footage is not lost. The HVR-DR60: An ideal companion for the HVR-V1U The HVR-DR60 hard disk drive can be used with existing HDV/DVCAM camcorders equipped with an i.LINK interface such as the HVR-Z1U, HVR-A1U and DSR-PD170P. However, use with the HVR-V1U offers unique features only available in this combination. Checking the operational status on the HVR-V1U On the LCD and VF of the HVR-V1U, you can easily check the operational status of the HVR-DR60 (connection, rec status, battery level, remaining recording time, recording folder name, etc.). This keeps you aware of both the camcorder and hard drive status without taking your eyes away from what you’re shooting. Tapeless recording with the HVR-V1U The HVR-DR60 hard disk drive can synchronize with the record command that is outputted from the camcorder. The HVR-V1U differs from its predecessor in that it can send a record signal with out the presence of a tape inserted. Thus tape-less, "Hybrid recording" is possible by connecting the HVR-V1U with the DVR-DR60. Maximizing the efficiency of non-linear editing Via a simple i.LINK connection, the HVR-DR60 Hard Disk Recording Unit allows recording of a compatible HDV1080i stream from an HDV camcorder, or a DV stream from a DVCAM camcorder. The 1.8-inch internal HDD offers a large capacity of 60GB, which translates into an impressive approximately 270 minutes (4.5 hours) for both HDV and DVCAM recordings. The HDV1080i stream is recorded as native HDV files (.M2T), while DV stream is recorded as AVI files (.AVI :DV Type1). When connected to a PC, the HVR-DR60 is recognized as a standard external drive, so you can immediately access and edit the recorded footage just as any typical video file. This saves the time previously required for digitizing material from the tape to PC -- time that could otherwise be spent for more creative and productive editing tasks. Many NLE programs will be able to access files and control the HVR-DR60 hard disk drive via the i.LINK connector. With compatible programs, the HVR-DR60 hard disk drive will behave as a VTR, but with a random access file structure which will allow immediate access to clips on the disk. Using the hybrid recording function of the HVR-V1U camcorder, in which video and audio material is recorded simultaneously to the hard disk and tape, you can be assured that you won’t lose an important shot. In the rare case that either the tape device or hard disk fails, you will always have a backup. The hybrid function also facilitates archiving operations of your all-important source footage -- which in most cases do not allow for reshoots. After a shoot, immediately archive your source tape and use the HVR-DR60 material as your work footage. Unlike camcorders using low-capacity recording media, there is no need to invest the time and effort in copying the original data to a separate high-capacity medium. Just reformat the HVR-DR60 and you are ready to go on your next assignment. Same batteries that power your camcorder The last thing you want to worry about on location is using different types of batteries. With the HVR-DR60 hard disc drive you can use the same InfoLithium L Series batteries that are used for the HVR-V1U, HVR-Z1U and DSR-PD170 camcorders. Using the smallest capacity NP-F570 battery, the HVR-DR60 operating time is approximately 270 minutes (4.5 hours), and with a high-capacity NP-F970 unit, this increases to approximately 810 minutes (13.5 hours). Long operating hours are possible with the batteries that Sony HDV users already have at hand.

Most helpful customer reviews 78 of 79 people found the following review helpful. Excellent, snow leopard, with some minor restrictions through I have the opportunity to work with this camera a few times, plus compare it to other HD cameras out there in its price class, and was impressed by some aspects and much more about a few other to consider. All in all, this is a great little HD camera that takes great pictures right out of the box. It handles beautifully, has a true microphone that comes with it, and the lens is well on her relationship to 20x. It's slow motion, although the quality is slightly smaller than SD, looks great and makes great fun to play. The camera's low light ability is not as good as the Canon XH-A1 in the same price range, or the Panasonic HVX200 (another $ 2k +), or as good as the older Sony Z1 (which does not shoot 24 fps). In retrospect, the Sony PD170 the low light standard was about 2 stops better in low light. But the low light performance V1U is almost a taste of the camera tends to give a little 'fine grain in low light, type of film which in one way or another. My guess is that this "effect" is nice for some people who do not have problems with views grainy low light as a problem. Test for yourself before buying. LCD screen and viewfinder are very nice. Very strong, with information of great reading, including histograms, to ensure that every shot is properly exposed. The camera also has an automatic gain control really nice. Much better than Canon in its price group. Nice focusing features too. The camera is also part of the larger packaged idea - do not have, but it works perfectly with a portable hard drive (HVR- DR60) that allows you to get HDMI output, for much less compressed picture (though most people think Going looks good on tape), and these files can be dragged right onto your computer - no more to catch! LED lights are really cool too. Again, these are additional costs. Pros - Great picture quality in most all lighting conditions do not need much tweaking, it looks good almost all the time out of the box. But if you want to customize, you can. If you really want to change, consider the Canon lineup. Where 24 fps, and true progressive chips, for filmmaking. Great film gamma curves. Feels good in hand. Very well balanced. True 20x zoom lens. The 30x digital zoom looks great! Nice zoom and focus ring. I was expecting lesser quality. CMOS chips are very good the lack of lubrication on most cameras can be seen with CCD chips (those sharp vertical lines you see when you take photos of sunsets, for example) and the chips have a film that more than other camcorders 24fps looks with functionality (including me). Comes with a real microphone - especially a $ 500 Sennheiser, it's better than most onboard camera, which is a nice extra. Slow motion, the lower the quality, looks really cool (to 240 frames per second!). Very useful for the video from DVD (not HD) or on the web cool HDMI output, along with other accessories (not included), such as shooting on the hard disk or a neat LED indicator light. Con - Questionable low light capability. If you shoot a lot of shots in the night, dark inside (horror movies, dimly lit interviews) you really need to test and compare it with other equipment before buying. If you take pictures regularly, especially a lot of outdoor, daylight, shoot or work professionally, it should be no problem. The cost is about $ 500 more than comparable Canon XH-A1 (which does not come with the microphone). The files that are HD HVR-DR60 move in. M2T, which must be transformed if you have a Mac (but still usable and convertible on the Mac) to use. Is as good as the goal, I think the Canon is better, and better ability to image stabilization. In short, it's a great little camera for most applications, with a picture of a little unique. Almost everyone in a store to buy one can easily compare with similar cameras
