be stored in customer an can also be shared by e-mail. This media can
be used for service and software upgrades.
Compact & Lightweight
Very compact and fits perfectly on the shoulder. The weight balance is
optimized to support extended shoulder shooting.

The new adjustable shoulder pad allows hours of operation without painful
pressure points as is common with conventional, harder shoulder pad types
Video Light Connector
Optional (50W max.) video light equipment can be connected directly to
the camcorder and powered from the video light connector. The light can
be synchronized with the VTR Start/Stop switch or switched manually on/off.
Electronic Color Temperature Adjustment
Switching of color temperature electronically (via menu). Thus, the 5600K
optical filter rarely needs to be employed (save 2/3 f-stop of sensitivity
under daylight conditions). Adjustment of color temperature over a very
wide range to achieve artistic painting effects and/or to influence the
overall color reproduction.
Jog Dial Menu Control
Simplified menu operation-especially useful under time critical ENG production
applications.

All DVCAM format benefits are incorporated. High reliability vs consumer
or professional DV. Long recording time-up to 3 hours of DVCAM on one
tape. Extra long 4 1/2 hour DV SP recording
