✜infoLITHIUM L Series Battery Compatible
The HVR-Z7E uses the same batteries as the HVR-Z1E, HVR-V1E and DSR-PD170P, so you can fully utilise your existing battery and charger assets.
✜HDMI output connector
Uncompressed digital HD video and audio signals are output from the HDMI connector. You can see stunning HD images on the HDMI-compatible monitor display. During shooting, the pre-compressed 1920x1080i/4:2:2 signal is output from the HDMI connector.
✜Smooth Slow Rec
The Smooth Slow Rec function of the HVR-Z7E camcorder enables slow-motion playback by capturing images four times faster than the normal field rate (200 fields/s). In this mode, quad-speed images are captured for three seconds, stored in the built-in buffer memory, and then recorded to tape (in either HDV, DVCAM, or DV format) as slow-motion pictures lasting 12 seconds*15. This allows recorded images to be checked immediately in the field. Although the resolution of the picture quality is decreased, this function is effective for some applications that don’t need full HD quality, such as Internet movies or the analysis of moving objects like a golf swing, for example.
