Sony HDW-M2100P. The HDW-M2000P/1 is ideal as part of an end-to-end HDCAM production chain. It also makes business sense even when post production and programme distribution remains at 625/50 standard definition. An inbuilt HD to SD downconverter provides a standard definition output from your high quality HDCAM original recordings. Compatible replay of Betacam, Betacam SP, Betacam SX, MPEG IMX and Digital Betacam tapes also helps smooth your transition to the world of high definition.
Superb High Definition Pictures HDCAM VTRs are in use around the world for the most prestigious programme productions. The HDW-M2000P/1 produces great quality pictures and is the ideal companion to the HDW-750P and HDW-730S HDCAM camcorders.
Unlimited opportunities for international productions With 1080/50i, 1080/59.94i, 1080/25P and 1080/29.97P switchability, the HDW-M2000P/1 brings new opportunities for international production and distribution. You can use the
HDW-M2000P/1 to produce a travel programme for a European audience one day, and a music programme for transmission in the USA or Japan the next.
Business benefits today and tomorrow When used in an end-to-end high definition production chain, the HDW-M2000P/1 maintains the exceptional quality of HDCAM from shooting to playout. The HDW-M2000P/1 also makes business sense when post production and distribution is completed in standard definition. A built-in downconverter within the VTR creates standard definition pictures from HDCAM tapes. These SD pictures can then be replayed into your existing standard definition edit suite for subsequent post production. And users today are recognising that pictures shot in HD and post produced in SD provide a better on-screen look than those originated in standard definition.
Peace of mind for High Definition post production Over 15,000 HDCAM VTRs and camcorders have been sold worldwide, and the number of post houses and broadcast facilities equipped with HDCAM grows every day. HDCAM VTRs have a great track record for rugged and reliable operation around the world.
Ease-of use for minimum re-training The latest in a long line of digital VTRs from Sony, the
HDW-M2000P/1 retains the ergonomic design and familiar operation of formats such as Digital Betacam. With the
HDW-M2000P/1, you avoid expensive operational retraining and can generate great pictures from day one.
HDCAM recording and playback
HDCAM uses intra-frame DCT compression using a compression ratio of about 7:1. There are four channels of 48kHz digital audio at 20-bit resolution.
Selectable frame rates
The HDW-M2000P/1 can record and replay at 1080/50i, 1080/59.94i, 1080/25P and 1080/29.97P.
It can also replay 1080/24P and 1080/23.98P material.
Compatible replay of standard definition cassettes
Betacam, Betacam SP, Betacam SX, MPEG IMX and Digital Betacam cassettes can be replayed.
The HDW-M2000P/1 is optimised for analogue 625/50 Betacam and Betacam SP playback, but can replay 525/60 Betacam and Betacam SP tapes and provide a monitoring quality output. Full playback quality is achived when replaying Betacam SX,
MPEG IMX and Digital Betacam 525/60 tapes.
Built-in up and down converters
The HDW-M2000P/1 has a built in HD to SD downconverter and a built-in SD to HD upconverter.
Downconversion allows tapes shot in HDCAM to be output in standard definition for subsequent post production or distribution. The downconverted image can be squeezed or cropped within the VTR for display on a 4:3 monitor.
No compromise in editing performance
Assemble, insert and pre-read editing is provided. When used in pre-read mode, the HDW-M2000P/1 can be used to insert titles into video material using a single VTR.
Broadcast quality slow motion
The HDW-M2000P/1 has DT (Dynamic Tracking) heads as standard. Broadcast quality pictures can be replayed in the range –1 to x2 speed from HDCAM tapes, and from –1 to x3 speed when replaying Betacam, Betacam SP, Betacam SX, MPEG IMX and Digital Betacam cassettes.
High quality picture search and jog
Selecting edit points is easy with the HDW-M2000P/1. Pictures and sound can be searched at up to x50 normal speed.
Compact chassis
The HDW-M2000P/1 uses a 4U chassis design, in common with MPEG IMX VTRs and the new DVW-M2000P series Digital Betacam VTRs.
Surround sound
Both Dolby-E and AC-3 are handled as standard
