The Sony PDW-700 records stunning quality HD images at up to 50Mb/s onto 50GB Dual Layer Professional Discs. The PDW-700 has three 2/3-inch progressive CCD sensors each with full 1920 x 1080 resolution using newly developed "Power HADT FX" technology.
The PDW-700 will take XDCAM HD performance to a new level due to the 14 bit A/D conversion, 4:2:2 sampling and recording, and advanced digital signal processing. The PDW-700 will also support recording in both 1080 and 720-line formats.
The PDW-700 has been designed to increase the appeal of XDCAM HD for applications such as news, European TV drama, documentary and mainstream entertainment programmes that required a high quality look. The PDW-700 is also ideal for fast-turnaround news and live applications where speed of production is a critical requirement, due to the file-based acquisition onto Professional Disc, with both thumbnail and proxy operation available.
