Sony is pleased to announce the introduction of the new HVR-HD1000U
Digital 1080i 1/3" ClearVid CMOS Sensor High Definition HDV
camcorder. This new addition to Sony’s HDV camcorders, featuring
a shoulder mount design and matte black color, was
designed to meet the growing demand of HDV users for greater mobility
and professional appearance, and is ideal for weddings, corporate
communications, colleges and universities, and sporting events.
The new HVR-HD1000U is ideal for working videographers on a budget,
with premium design characteristics and high-definition 1080i
recording capability. A built-in down-converter creates
DV material, perfect for standard DVD productions. Plus, a special
still photo mode is ideal for producing DVD cases and making
wedding photo albums.
Utilizing a 1/3” ClearVid CMOS sensor combined with Sony’s Enhanced
Imaging Processor (EIP)technology, the HVR-HD1000U delivers exceptional
sensitivity and high resolution, producing natural and rich tones in
both light and dark areas of an image. The EIP technology also enables
the high-speed processing required for capturing high-definition video
and still images at extremely high levels of
gradation and
image reproduction. The HVR-HD1000U camcorder can adapt to a wide range of
shooting situations and features a Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens with
10x optical zoom, as featured on higher end professional HDV
camcorders. The Vario-Sonnar T* lens coating suppresses
unwanted reflections and faithfully reproduces colors for professional-looking
results.
The HVR-HD1000U camcorder also features a new configuration for its
LCD monitor and electronic view finder (EVF). The LCD monitor
is positioned at the front of the camera operator when
the camcorder is shoulder-mounted, and is attached at the EVF level. This
unique layout enables traditional EVF as well as LCD monitoring for
the camera operator even while the camcorder is held on the shoulder.
The 180-degree tilt mechanism allows for LCD monitoring when the camcorder
is held in a high or low angle position. The 360-degree swivel
mechanism also allows LCD monitoring from the front, right or even left
of the camcorder so that a reporter or a director can monitor what
is being captured by the camcorder.
The “Smooth Slow Rec” function of the HVR-HD1000U camcorder
allows users to perform slow-motion playback by capturing images at
four times faster than the normal field rate (240 fields/s). In this mode,
quad-speed images are captured for three seconds, stored in the camcorder’s
built-in buffer memory, and then recorded to tape (in either the HDV, DVCAM,
or DV formats) as slow-motion pictures lasting 12 seconds.
The HVR HD1000U also offers a diverse range of photo creation
features which are available at the touch of a button. In Photo Mode,
the HVR-HD1000U camcorder allows the user to take 6.1-megapixel,
2848 x 2136 quality, 4:3 aspect images. Dual Rec mode allows the user
to take 4.6-megapixel (16:9-aspect) photos while shooting HDV video
simply by pressing the photo button. Additionally, in case the perfect
timing for a still photo was missed while videotaping, the videographer
can capture and save still frames from recorded video by just pressing
the photo button of the HVR-HD1000U camcorder during playback.
HDV footage will give them a 1.2-megapixel, 1440 x 810 pixel still image
of that magic moment.
The Super SteadyShot (optical) feature of the HVR-HD1000U camcorder
is an image stabilization system using an active optical lens method
that functions without any deterioration in image quality. The Super
NightShot function of the HVR-HD1000U camcorder uses a built-in
infrared light emitter to record objects in zero lux
light levels and to allow night-time monitoring and surveillance.
The HVR-HD1000U also offers benefits for SD productions as well as HD.
Several down-conversion modes are selectable for
the camcorder: Squeeze and Edge Crop for all video outputs, and Letter Box
for component/composite/HDMI output. The HVR-HD1000U also makes it easy
to use HDV recordings for current DV editing work. Using the HVR-HD1000U’s
down-conversion feature that outputs converted DV signals through the
i.LINK connector, standard definition DV can be recorded
onto an HVR-DR60 for use with a DV non-linear editing system, while
retaining an HD master on the tape for future use. Furthermore,
the HVR-HD1000U offers a DV recording mode (4:3 or 16:9), which can
provide a recording time of approximately 120 minutes in LP mode.
The HVR-HD1000U camcorder uses the same standard InfoLithium L series
batteries as the DSR-PD170,HVR-Z1U, and HVR-V1U. With the 2NP-F970/B,
a maximum operating time of approximate 10 hours can be achieved
thanks to the power management system and low power consumption
of the ClearVid CMOS Sensor.
