HDCAM-SR Camcorder

SRW-9000 HDCAM-SR Camcorder

In 2000, Sony laid the groundwork for a new era of digital image making in the motion picture industry with the introduction of its HDW-F900 the first model in Sonys 24P-capable CineAlta lineup. Since then, the HDW-F900 and its successor model, the HDW-F900R have been satisfying the demand for high level picture quality and creative versatility in primetime TV production, commercial production, and movie making. Now, Sony has taken the next evolutionary step with the next generation 24P camcorder, the SRW-9000 HDCAM-SR camcorder. This inherits many of the excellent qualities of the HDW-F900/F900R, plus it offers incredible operational mobility even in harsh shooting environments thanks to its one-piece body, and outstanding picture performance from the HDCAM-SR recording format. In standard configuration, the SRW-9000 is capable of top-quality 4:2:2 Y/Cb/Cr 10-bit recording at 1080/23.98P 24P 25P and 29.97P and 1080/50i and 59.94i. In addition, the SRW-9000 can record 1080/50P , , , and 59.94P signals, and 4:2:2 720/50P and 59.94P* signals, which can be used for DTV programming and transmission applications. For users who require further creative performance, a variety of option cards can be added, allowing you to benefit from full-bandwidth 1080 RGB 4:4:4 capturing, SR Motion variable frame rate capturing and recording, S-Log Gamma, and additional signal inputs and outputs. Providing improved operational flexibility and cost benefits, the SRW-9000 is the perfect choice for anyone in the broadcasting industry seeking HDCAM-SR picture quality and a high level of creative freedom. Both now and into the future, the SRW-9000 will help ignite a passion for stunning visual productions in digital cinema, commercial programs, TV dramas, and documentaries.
*It will be realized by future software upgrade.

HDCAM-SR One-piece Camcorder Achieving Breathtaking Picture Quality

The SRW-9000 is an HDCAM-SR one-piece camcorder that delivers full HD resolution images and employs 2/3-type IT CCD. Combining this CCD with a high-precision 14-bit A/D converter and digital signal processing, the camcorder is able to capture and reproduce stunning-quality 1080/60P and 1080/50P images with low noise and high sensitivity. Furthermore, Sonys BPGL95, an on-board battery can be attached to provide an additional power supply. With its self-contained recording media (based on the HDCAMSR format) and compact one-piece design, the SRW-9000 delivers powerful mobility and comfortable shooting both indoors and outside.

Picture Cache Recording Capability Everything captured maximum three seconds before the REC button is pressed is recorded to HDCAM-SR tape when the camcorder is in stand-by mode. 2-3 Pull-down/Built-in Down-conversion Output I/O Expandability When using the HKSR-9001, additional dual-link HD-SDI outputs and an additional AUX input port are provided, allowing the camcorder to be connected with an external audio multiplexing device. Wide Range of Accessories The SRW-9000 is compatible with a wide range of accessories for the HDW-F900, F23, SRW-1, and ARRI.

Full-bandwidth RGB 4:4:4 Digital Image Capturing

With the addition of the optional HKSR-9003 RGB 4:4:4 Processing Board, the SRW-9000 offers a full-bandwidth digital 4:4:4 high-definition Red, Green, and Blue signal processing and output ability. This camcorder is also capable of the 4:4:4 High Quality (HQ) mode and the 4:4:4 Standard Quality (SQ) mode, enabling 880Mb/s 4:4:4 RGB recording and 440Mb/s 4:4:4 RGB recording respectively for highly demanding picture productions. The SRW-9000 also offers S-LOG Gamma with the same optional board, allowing users to flexibly adjust images in the post-production process.

SR MotionTM Variable Frame Rate Image Capturing

By adding the HKSR-9002 Picture Cache Board, the SRW-9000 is capable of recording images at a variable frame rate from 1 fps to 60 fps in 4:2:2 mode. And by combining the HKSR-9002 with the HKSR-9003, it can perform the same function even in 4:4:4 mode.

Wide Choices of Viewfinders

The SRW-9000 accepts three types of viewfinder, including the HDVF20A/200, HDVF-C35W, and HDVF-C30WR. The newly introduced HDVFC30WR is especially suited for use with the SRW-9000, offering improved focus assist functions, a color brightness level indicator, and numerous other beneficial features. Moreover, with pre-installed viewing LUTs (lookup tables) for S-Log Gamma, this viewfinder provides users with easier focus adjustment and a more intuitive photo-shooting operation.
