SONY DVW-709WS One-piece Switchable 4:3/16:9 Digital Betacam Camcorder for EFP.   PRODUCT DETAILS One-piece Switchable 4:3/16:9 Digital Betacam Camcorder for EFP. The camera uses three 16:9 Power HAD 1000 CCD "IT" imagers to produce more than 700 TVL resolution while maintaining f9.0 @ 2000 Lux sensitivity. 12 Bit A/D utilizing 36 MHz Digital Signal Processing ensures the highest picture quality for SDTV field capture. PRODUCT FEATURES 3-chip 2/3-inch 16:9 / 4:3 Widescreen Power HAD IT CCD imagerS/N ratio 65 dB typicalSmear level -120 dBHigher S/N ratio and improved highlight and low light capability.Includes more features: skin tone iris skin tone detail highlight handling ensures wide dynamic range.Easier to navigate the menu system and makes faster changes in the field.Easier to navigate the menu system and makes faster changes in the field.Easier to navigate the menu system and makes faster changes in the field.Allow scenes to be logged for more efficient post- production.Allows up to 48dB-gain boost for ultimate low light imaging. Can be increased up to 7f stops at a moment's notice.Easily changed to add more flexibility in choosing or adjusting colorimetry of the camcorder.This allows automatic tracing of the white balance in situations where the overall colorimetry of the lighting changes. It is a particularly useful feature for continuous shooting that requires the subject to be followed from exterior to interior i.e. from daylight to tungsten lighting but with no opportunity to color balance the camera.Allows more creative freedom of how contrast is reproduced by the camera system. It also allows emulation of the popular film stocks using pre-programmed "Gamma Cards."Allows better color reproduction in highlight areas. This feature is superior to analog processing.Works with TruEye to maintain accurate colorimetry above the knee point.Weight: Aprox. 11lbs. 1oz. (5kg.)Operating Weight: Aprox. 15lbs.7oz.
