DVCAM FEATURES

Camera Features
The Professional Picture Quality You Demand
Newly Developed 1/3-inch CCD 3CCD Camera System
The DSR-PD150 incorporates three 1/3-inch CCDs with 380,000 pixels (effective 340,000 pixels), while the DSR-PD150P incorporates three 1/3-inch CCDs with 450,000 pixels (effective 400,000 pixels). The 1/3-inch size contributes to the high sensitivity and signalto-noise ratio. These CCDs are capable of both interlace scan and progressive scan, which is useful for recording still images or shooting a moving subject and exporting a frame of the image as a still picture to a PC.

New 12x Zoom Lens

This newly developed 12x lens with a 58 mm filter diameter allows the DSR-PD150 to achieve high picture quality as a 1/3-inch CCD camcorder. The camcorder has 530 lines of horizontal resolution, allowing you to capture your subject in greater detail.

Optical Super SteadyShot

The DSR-PD150 employs the Super SteadyShot system in which the horizontal and vertical movements are detected independently by the sensors. The prism system located in the front of the lens adjusts and optically compensates for unsteadiness, while maintaining image quality.
180,000 dot LCD Precision Black & White Viewfinder
The 0.4 type black and white LCD viewfinder provides 500 lines of horizontal resolution - more than 20% greater than current color viewfinders. This enables easier manual focussing.

Recording Features

High Quality Digital Recording

DVCAM/DV Recording

The DSR-PD150 adopts the DVCAM format to offer professional video and audio quality as well as high reliability. For professional audio editing, an audio lock mode is used. It is also capable of recording and playing back DV format tapes (SP mode only)*.
* During playback of DV recordings, the picture seldom flashes between scenes. In between scenes where the recording format is changed from DV to DVCAM, or vice versa, the picture may flash.
2 ch XLR Audio Input and Supplied Monaural Microphone
The DSR-PD150 comes with two XLR audio input connectors for connecting professional microphones. The input level can be selected from Mic/Line/Mic Attenuator positions. 48 V DC power can be supplied. INPUT 1 audio can be recorded on either CH1, or CH1 and CH2 audio tracks (selected by switch). One monaural microphone is supplied with the unit.
16-bit/12-bit PCM Digital Sound and Audio Dub Capability
The DSR-PD150 records two channels of audio with the 48kFs/16-bit or 32kFs/12-bit mode. On a pre-recorded tape with two channels recorded in the 32kFs/12-bit mode, it can dub additional two channels through the external mic input (XLR connectors or RCA pin jacks, DVCAM recorded tape only).

* Picture Gear 4.1 LITE (supplied) or higher is recommended when using Memory Mix functions.

Index Marking

An Index can be marked while recording with the camera or recording from an external video source.

Time Code Preset

DVCAM FEATURES / SPECIFICATIONS

Digital Program Editing

The DSR-PD150 can edit a tape using the i.LINK interface. After connecting the camcorder to a Sony VCR via an i.LINK cable and setting IN and OUT points for up to 20 programs, the camcorder and VCR will automatically edit the selected portions. The camera controls the VCR through the AVC (Audio/Video Control) of the i.LINK interface. The accuracy of editing is within five frames.
InfoLITHIUM Battery System
The DSR-PD150/150P incorporates the InfoLITHIUM battery system. An IC chip is included in the battery and transmits the remaining capacity of the battery, accurate to the minute, to the camcorder.
Note: The camcorder will not function when non-InfoLITHIUM batteries such as NP-710/NP-720 are attached.
Battery Charging Function
The DSR-PD150 has a built-in battery charging function that will automatically charge the battery when the supplied AC-L10 cord is connected. The charging status will appear on the camcorder LCD indicator, reflecting the recording time possible with the battery's current charge.
Note: Battery charging can also be done with the optional AC-VQ800.
