1. Buy digital Sony Camcorder
Description:
The Buy Digital Sony Camcorder is the entry level HDV camcorder that records
high definition video as well as DVCAM and DV standard-definition video. The
camera uses a single 3-megapixel CMOS chip to capture images. The use of a
CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) chip allows the camera to
capture amazing high quality images while consuming less battery power and
making the camera smaller overall. The Enhanced Imaging Processor (EIP), a Sony
created technology, enables the camcorder to capture and process high-definition
video and high resolution still images with the highest levels of contrast and
detail. This model is specifically for PAL system video applications.
See the Most with CMOS
The HVR-A1P realizes new levels of compact design and efficiency with a single 3
megapixel CMOS imaging chip. Compared to a CCD (Charged Coupled Device), a
CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) works more efficiently and
burns less battery power. It uses both positive and negative polarity circuits, only
one at any given time.
Professional Audio Inputs
As with its big brother the HVR-Z1 3-CCD camcorder, this single chip camera offers
professional shooters balanced XLR audio inputs with phantom power and
attenuation options. A shotgun microphone can be mounted on top the
camcorder as a large, shoulder-mount ENG style camera would.
2. Zeiss Lens
The professional video and filmmaker will not be disappointed with the quality of
glass at the front of the A1U camera. Sony has engineered the camera around a
Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens for the latest in anti-reflective coatings and new
levels of HDTV-quality resolving power in a compact design. This camera's a 10x
zoom lens has a maximum wide angle of 5.1 mm which will show a 50° horizontal
angle of view.
1080 Lines Resolution
The HVR-A1P is a tiny camera capable of recording in several frame rates
including NTSC. When it is set up to record standard definition video this camera
is an PAL device that stripes the tape at 30 interlace frames per second. When it is
selected to record in HDV it can record 50, 25 frames per second. Its widescreen
chip captures over 1000 horizontal lines and 1440 vertical lines no matter what
you dial in for record format.
