Features
 |
Sony's Exclusive High-performance "G Lens": Discover the exceptional optical performance of Sony's "G Lens". This sophisticated lens incorporates Sony's unique optical technology and unparalleled quality control |
|
The 29.5mm wide-angle "G Lens" (equivalent to 35mm film) on the HVR-Z5U offers a field of view that's ideal for many shooting situations, ranging from broad landscape shots to conditions where sufficient distance from the subject is difficult to obtain |
|
Two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements reduce chromatic aberrations caused by differences in light refraction to minimize color fringing |
|
Advanced optical lens technology makes the most of Sony's 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor system to realize sharp images with higher resolution and less noise compared to the HVR-Z1U even when shooting in very low light |
|
The six-blade iris diaphragm is nearly circular, enabling the creation of extremely beautiful background blur |
|
Natural-touch Lens Operation: Newly designed focus, zoom and iris control functions provide convenient lens operation. The zoom function is variable and can be controlled using the lens barrel ring, the lever at the lens grip, or the lever on the camera handle |
|
An Ideal Handheld Camcorder Design: Sony has responded to professional user feedback to create the ideal handheld camcorder with ergonomically designed body-weight balance and a well-planned layout of buttons and connectors to reduce stress on camera operator |
|
Two Screw Holes for Secure Connection: To provide a more secure connection between the camcorder and tripod plate or other accessories, two screw holes have been incorporated into the base plate of the camcorder |
|
1/3 Inch-type 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor System: The 1/3 inch-type 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor system has 45-degree rotated pixels on each chip in order to increase the signal density, while each pixel maintains sufficient surface area |
|
Enhanced Functionality with the Technology of Exmor: The new HVR-Z5U boasts cutting-edge features such as the Exmor technology which utilizes the full potential of the 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor system |
|
Expanding the HDV Format as a Global Standard: The HDV 1080i specification uses one of the "MPEG2 Long GOP" compression profiles. This highly efficient and robust "MPEG2 Long GOP" codec - which is also used in Sony's XDCAM HD and XDCAM EX series - enables users to record stunning-quality HD video |
|
Switchable Recording and Playback - HDV1080i/DVCAMTM/DV: The HVR-Z5U can switch between HDV 1080i, DVCAM and standard DV recording, providing the ultimate flexibility to suit your production needs |

Built-in Down-converter for SD Production: The HVR-Z5U can convert material from 1080i down to 480i and output the video signals through its i.LINK interface and other SD output connectors |
|
24p/30p HDV Native Progressive Recording Mode: The camcorder features 24p/30p native progressive recording mode. The 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor system and EIP create true 1080p images, which can then be recorded as progressive signals by the HVR-Z5U in HDV format |
|
24p/30p Progressive Scan Mode: In these modes, the 1080p image captured by the 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor system is also recorded as an interlaced signal by dividing each frame into two fields |
|
