HDW-2000 Series

1/2-Inch Platform Advances to Greater Heights
Since introducing its first model, Sony has continually enhanced the BETACAM Series of products, each offering high performance and preserving a consistent half-inch platform capability. The analog BETACAM and BETACAM SP formats introduced an entirely new set of opportunities to ENG and EFP operations, while the use of digital processing in the Digital BETACAM and MPEG IMX formats brought standardized 4:2:2 digital recording into both news gathering and field production. Today, each format is in service in a multiplicity of programming applications, offering high reliability and superb performance that only BETACAM technology provides. In 1997 Sony revolutionized HDTV program origination with the introduction of a 1/2-inch camcorder the HDW-700. This was soon followed by the HDW-700A camcorder, which operates according to the updated 1080/60i production standard. This camcorder, in association with its editing VTR the HDW-500, extended the BETACAM format tradition into the realm of mobile HD program creation. In 1999 the HDCAM format was dramatically broadened to include the new multi-frame rate camcorder the HDW-F900 and its companion VTR the HDW-F500 both responding to the breakthrough new ITU 709 global standard for international HD program origination. The pivotal inclusion of the new 24-frame progressive format in this standard constituted a central design imperative for the HDW-F900/F500 system and introduced to the world the first digital 24-frame motion picture capture system. With the HDW-F900/F500 Series squarely addressing the needs of movie-making and high-end prime time television program and commercial production, Sony returned to the central agenda of a mainstream HD capture system in support of the emerging broader DTV broadcasting agendas around the world. This is based upon the SMPTE 274M HD production standard. A second-generation 1080/60i camcorder and VTR system have been developed which is intended as a more cost-effective and feature enhanced system specifically designed to streamline the migration to DTV. This central design strategy was incorporated into this new HDCAM system. Accordingly, the new HDW-2000 Series VTR offers full HDCAM record and editing facilities, but also includes both the all-important function of legacy playback of all standard definition BETACAM formats and internal up-conversion of that playback to the 1920 x 1080 digital sampling format for playout in the HDTV format. The legacy playback includes analog BETACAM/BETACAM SP, Digital BETACAM, BETACAM SX, and the MPEG IMX 1/2-inch tape recordings. Thus a crucial bridge between SDTV libraries (and ongoing SDTV digital origination) has been realized. Recognizing the inevitable two-way flow of program material between SDTV and HDTV, the new HDW-2000 Series VTR also includes digital down-conversion* as a standard feature, thus allowing the creation of Super-sampled digital 4:2:2 SDTV program material. The HDW-2000 Series also provides the same reliability and operability inherited from the long-established BETACAM Series offering a powerful workhorse solution to HDTV environments as well as to current SDTV systems. Its counterpart, HDW-750 camcorder is extremely compact and lightweight and maintains the robust and reliable construction for which BETACAM technology is world-renowned. With its high quality, superb operability and added reliability, the HDW-2000 Series VTR is an economically well-balanced solution for next generation HDTV programming. * Down conversion is not available for tapes played back at 23.98 or 24 Hz.

Features

High-Definition Picture Quality with HDCAM Format
The HDW-2000 Series recorders/player adopt the proven HDCAM format, recording high-definition component digital signals using the state-of-the-art HDCAM compression technology. This excellent compression scheme maintains a high video bit rate of 140 Mbps (data rate on tape of 185 Mbps). The format combines superb picture quality with the high reliability and robustness of 1/2-inch tape integrated into a design approach inherited from the BETACAM series.
Compact, Affordable High-Definition Video Cassette Recorder/Player with Legacy Playback
The HDW-2000 Series high-definition VTRs are not only affordable, they also provide a smooth migration path into the HDTV world. Three different models are available to suit budgetary and operational needs. In addition to HDCAM recording/playback, the HDW-M2000 and HDW-M2100 are equipped with backward playback capability for current 1/2-inch tape formats; Digital BETACAM, MPEG IMX, BETACAM SX, BETACAM SP and BETACAM. However, the HDW-2000 eliminates this capability in order to provide utmost cost efficiency. With its affordability and different choice of feature sets, the HDW-2000 Series is destined to be a true workhorse in broadcast stations and ENG applications.

Wide Array of Signal Formats
The HDW-M2000/M2100 can playback a wide variety of legacy SDTV VTR formats in addition to the HDCAM format. Since the HDW-M2000/M2100 can output signals in 1080i, 576i and 480i, each format is reproduced in its corresponding vertical resolution. As an even greater advantage, the HDW-2000 Series has up and down converters built-in so a program originated for SDTV can be up converted for HDTV transmission, and materials that were made in the HD format can be down converted as Super-sampled SD images. This is a distinct advantage of the HDW-2000 Series. The Super-sampled HD origination produces standard definition 480 and 576-line NTSC/PAL signals which are superior to those originated in standard definition (their horizontal and vertical MTFs are higher and the associated scanning aliasing is less). Furthermore, a 720P progressive output is available for integration into 720P-based systems. *For output of the 720P signal, an upgrade of software, hardware, or both may be required.
Please consult your nearest Sony office.

Metadata Handling

In the HDW-2000 Series, special care has been given to metadata handling in order to increase production efficiency, and to provide the utmost convenience in media asset management systems and material distribution systems. In general, metadata consists of user-defined data indicating when, where, or by whom the material was created, Closed Caption data, and a variety of other data describing the material content. Among such metadata, UMID, as standardized in SMPTE 330M, is a globally unique identifier used for the identification of picture/audio material and data. UMID is automatically generated within compatible equipment such as VTRs and camcorders during each recording. The HDW-2000 Series VTR provides the facility to record UMID on tape when the VTR performs dubbing, editing, and copying through up-/down-conversion. This recorded UMID is used in subsequent processes from editing, archiving and on to distribution, bringing efficiency throughout the entire program production chain. The HDW-2000 Series VTRs enables up to 255 bytes x 3 packets of metadata per field to be recorded, which can be transferred to other devices via HD-SDI, or SDTI.

Content Information Management (Tele-File system and JZ-1 Videocassette Logging Software)
The Tele-File system is a non-contact read/write system for storing production-related data on an IC memory embedded in a 1/2-inch cassette label. This system allows operators to efficiently manage cassette content information such as Shot Marks, scene numbers, and cassette numbers. The HDW-2000 Series VTRs come equipped with a built-in reader/writer module, enabling data to be written to and read from a Tele-File label (option: MLB-1M-100) within the VTR. This system is especially useful for managing cue-up points, which increases the efficiency of locating editing points in subsequent operations. For further enhanced Tele-File system operations, the JZ-1 Videocassette Logging Software provides an easy-to-use GUI environment for creating edit logs as well as facilitating the creation of content-related Tele-File data. This is available by connecting a PC running the JZ-1 software to the HDW-2000 Series VTR.
