About Focus Enhancements Videonics FS-3 40GB Firestore Hard Drive - NTSC SKU#1517342

The newest member of the FireStore family is FS-3. FS-3's small size and rugged chassis have been designed to bring DTE Technology to your existing DV Camcorder. Featuring industry standard Anton/Bauer, V-Mount or NP battery mount plates, you not only power FS-3 from your existing battery system, you conveniently mount FS-3 between your camcorder and battery system on any full size camcorder featuring a DV input/output port! Now any DV camcorder can easily be enhanced to include DTE disk recording capability!

FireStore FS-3 features a disk drive slot for the FSHDD-1 removable FireWire disk drive so you are not limited to a fixed, internal disk drive. It is also possible to daisy chain additional drives to the external 6-pin FireWire port, allowing ultra long record times. Power consumption is a low 7.5W preventing excess drain on your power source.

FireStore FS-3 also features a host of shock prevention features. Not only does the FSHDD-1 FireWire disk drive feature outstanding shock performance, an 8MB cache and an internal shock gasket, the FS-3 unit also features an electronic shock cache and a file error correction utility < all designed so your video is secure!

Additional features include loop record, retro loop record (so you'll never miss a shot!), time lapse record, a multitude of playback options and a VTR like interface. Shoot to disk only or simultaneously to disk and tape - the perfect confidence recording, archive and back-up! Remote control options include AV/C via FireWire, infrared remote, wired GPI or RS-232C. FireStore FS-3 also features full partition and format capabilities so you can work with virtually any drive at any time.
