Cassette Loading Vertical cassette loading minimises the risk of anything unwanted getting into the tape mechanism. The robust cassette compartment is dust and drip proof, and minimises acoustic noise from the rotating head drum. Stereo Audio Line Output A stereo audio line output is available from the 5-pin XLR connector on the rear of the camcorder. This provides two analogue audio output channels, which can be selected to be either CH-1/2 or CH-3/4. Internal Light System All new Digital Be

Turbo Gain Ð High Sensitivity The nominal sensitivity of all models is high, but in some situations it is necessary to shoot in extremely low light conditions. The Turbo Gain feature raises the gain level to an incredible +48 dB. Thanks to this feature, it is possible to record critical scenes down to around 0.2 lux Ð somewhat exceeding the colour sight capability of the human eye.

Menu-driven setup has been a unique and powerful feature of the DVW-700P and DVW-700WSP models for many years. Because of this feature, setting up Digital Betacam camcorders became a creative process instead of a tedious and laborious engineering necessity. This way, camera operators were given a unique opportunity to customise their camera settings, so that they precisely suited production requirements. Combined with the ability to store data on a ÔsmartÕ Setup Card, this brought a tremendous

Contrast Range The new DVW-790WSP, DVW-709WSP and DVW-707P can handle a very impressive contrast range. A number of useful features are readily available to help production crews meet specific shooting requirements. Gamma The gamma curve, in general, determines the way in which mid-tones are handled and therefore is of vital importance in achieving the overall ÔlookÕ of a shot. Changing master gamma is achieved either from a remote control unit or via the setup menu. These new camcorders are

Highlight Handling Thanks to Power HAD technology and 12-bit Advanced Digital Signal Processing, Digital Betacam camcorders cover a very wide dynamic range of up to 600%. Dynamic range is often defined as the capability of a camera to capture a very large difference between the brightest and darkest parts of a scene, and is very dependent on the knee circuits. A well-known problem with handling highlights is their effect on skin tones. To overcome this problem, and improve overall picture quali

Definition Ð Picture Sharpness The new Digital Betacam models reproduce pictures with natural sharpness and plenty of fine details. Furthermore, the combination of the new 12-bit ADSP, together with many new and innovative detail functions, allows very precise control of the way the picture texture and edges are represented. This is an important factor when using postproduction techniques such as multi-layering and chroma keying. Gone are the days of the extreme video look, with harsh thick blac
