Digital8 recording and playback records outstanding digital picture and sound on affordable Hi8 and 8mm tapes. Offers up to 500 lines of resolution with three times the color bandwidth of VHS and significantly lower video noise. Video Walkman VCRs can playback previously recorded material from Hi8 or 8mm videotapes in either SP or LP modes. S-Video connection offers superior video signal transfer from analog devices by reducing "Dot Crawl" which is commonly seen as distortion around the edge of the recorded video signal.

Built-in assemble editing (20 segments): Allows user to connect the deck via an i.LINK or infra-red interface to any other i.LINK or infra-red device and select up to twenty different scenes from a video and then have the deck automatically assemble those scenes together. 16-bit recording capability offers the same, outstanding sound quality as Compact Disc. 12 bit recording enables you to transfer the recorded signal via i.LINK to a compatible DV device so that stereo music or narration can be added without disturbing the original soundtracks.

i.LINK (IEEE 1394) DV Input/Output: Provides bi-directional digital communication that carries digital audio, digital video and control signals to other i.LINK equipped video devices and a growing range of compatible PCs for dubbing and non-linear editing.

Super LaserLink wireless connection: Allows the user to transmit audio and video, via infra-red, from the GV-D200 to the optional IFT-R20 LaserLink receiver, at a distance of up to 26 feet. The Super LaserLink system eliminates the need for running long video cables or using clumsy adapters.
