This camcorder provides an affordable migration to High Definition and gives you excellent flexibility and stunning results. This camcorder manages all of this, whilst retaining the popular benefits of DVCAM recording such as ease of use and I.LINK (IEEE1394) connectivity.

Providing two powered XLR inputs gives you the professional audio that matches the high definition pictures. You can also switch between NTSC and PAL providing a solution where different formats are required.

 

The option to switch the viewfinder between colour and black & white gives professional users the ability to focus shots accurately via the viewfinder while framing the image in the LCD panel at the same time.
