XDCAM: HD
Cameras
The Sony XDCAM HD system is a highly versatile production tool
that offers flexible recording functions including a choice of
video frame rates, interlace or progressive modes, recording
data rates, and both HD and SD formats. The PDW-F355L XDCAM HD
Camcorder features MPEG HD and DVCAM switchable recording with
three 1/2-inch HD CCDs. It is capable of recording 1080 video
lines of multiple frame rates at a high bit rate of up to 35
Mbps. It also provides four channels of high-quality
uncompressed audio. This allows an SD to HD migration path to a
complete HD-based environment. Down-conversion output to SD is a
standard feature in this camera. Instant random access, replay
of clips, IT network capability and the proxy data advantage
provide for an exceptional workflow.
The PDW-F355L provides excellent picture quality, adapting
Power HAD HD CCDs (1440x1080). It offers HD recording in
1080/59.94i, 50i, 29.97P, 25P and native 23.98P and the operator
can also select the desired bit rate to record it, either 35
Mbps, 25 Mbps and 18 Mbps depending on the desired picture
quality and recording length. Being a dual format camcorder, it
can also record in DVCAM mode at 25 Mbps. In addition to these
impressive capabilities, PDW-F355L also provides numerous
innovative features like Quick & Slow Motion, commonly known as
overcranking and undercranking, Slow Shutter, Clear Scan,
Interval Recording and Auto Focus Function. It also supports
i.LINK interface for File Access Mode and DV stream output
(including down-conversion from HD material).

XDCAM DECKS
XDCAM: HD Decks
PDW Series Decks
XDCAM HD decks are highly versatile and can be used for many
different applications including HD video recording,
linear/nonlinear editing, and presentations at large exhibitions
and conference venues. The PDW-F75 XDCAM is highly flexible and
can record in both MPEG HD and DVCAM formats. It is capable of
recording 1080 video lines of multiple frame rates at a high bit
rate of up to 35 Mbps on Professional Disc media. It also
provides four channels of high quality uncompressed audio.
The PDW-F75 deck records and plays Professional Disc with HD
material at 1080/59.94i, 50i, 29.97P, 25P and native 23.98P

MP@HL compression. And for high quality sound, four channel, 16
bit, 48 kHz uncompressed audio is used. The deck also can
down-convert MPEG HD material to DV signals and outputs via the
i.LINK interface. The PDW-F75 also features a built-in
Up/Down-conversion to up-convert DVCAM material to HD signals
and output via HD-SDI or HD analog component connection as well
as to down-convert MPEG HD material to SD SDI or composite
connection. It supports Jog/Variable operation with +/- 1 times
normal speed and Shuttle with +/- 20 times normal speed even
