HVR-Z7E and HVR-S270E Common Features

✜Wide Range of Lenses

The flexible bayonet lens attachment system allows you to use a wide range of lenses.

Standard 1/3-inch HD video lenses, from manufacturers such as Fujinon and Canon, can be attached directly to the HVR-Z7E and HVR-S270E.

If you’d like to attach a 2/3-inch or 1/2-inch HD video lens on the HVR-Z7E or HVR-S270E, it is possible to do so by adding a standard lens adaptor from the lens manufacturer.

The HVR-S270E and HVR-Z7E camcorders have 12-pin lens connectors allowing compatibility with professional ENG lenses.

This feature is very useful, not only for those who already have these professional HD video lenses, but also for those who prefer to use HD digital cinema lenses for their unique contrast, colour and atmosphere.
