About Sony DSR-250 DVCAM 1/3" Digital Camcorder - SKU#1766871

The DSR-250 incorporates three 1/3-inch CCDs with 380,000 pixels (effective 340,000 pixels). The 1/3-inch size also contributes to the high sensitivity and signal-to- noise ratio. These CCDs are capable of both interlace scan, for moving images, and progressive scan, for still images or shooting a moving subject and exporting a frame of the image as a still picture to a PC.

This developed 12x lens with a 58 mm filter diameter allows the DSR-250 to achieve high picture quality as a 1/3-inch CCD camcorder. The DSR-250 also employs the Super SteadyShot system. Horizontal and vertical movements are detected independently by sensors. The prism system, located in the front of the lens, adjusts and optically compensates for unsteadiness, while maintaining high image quality.

The DSR-250 incorporates the DXF-801 1.5-inch Black/White viewfinder for greater resolution. This durable, yet lightweight viewfinder enables easier manual focusing with its high resolution. A directional microphone is supplied with the DSR-250. The input can be selected from LINE/MIC/MIC with +48 V power supply.

The VTR portion of the DSR-250 is designed to accommodate both DVCAM and DV format standard and mini-size cassette tapes. This allows you to record up to 184 minutes with a standard-size DVCAM cassette and the freedom to record on any size DV cassette.

The DSR-250 records two channels of audio with the 48 kHz/16-bit or 32 kHz/12-bit mode. On a pre-recorded tape with two channels recorded in the 32 kHz/12-bit mode, it can dub an additional two channels through the external mic input (XLR connectors or RCA pin jacks, DVCAM recorded tape only).

The DSR-250 uses the DVCAM format to offer professional video and audio quality as well as high reliability. For professional editing, an audio lock mode is used to synchronize the audio and video. It is also capable of recording and playing back DV format tapes (SP mode only).

In addition to the front XLR input, the DSR-250 comes with two XLR audio input connectors for connecting professional microphones.
