DR-HD100 Features

The DR-HD100 offers the following features:

•Tapeless acquisition

Especially equipped camcorders permit the use of Direct To Edit (DTE) Technology to record directly from a camcorder while shooting and without the need of a tape.

•True DTE Technology

When shooting is finished, connect the DR-HD100 to a computer and instantly be ready to edit in the timeline. Files are recorded to disk as

HD Recorder	DV Recorder:	DV Recorder
M2T	AVI Type 1	(NTSC units):
	AVI Type 2	AVI Type 2 24p
	Avid OMF	QuickTime 24p
	Canopus AVI
	Matrox AVI
	Pinnacle
	QuickTime
	RawDV

DR-HD100 provides support for cutting edge HDV camcorders with 720p and 1080i MPEG-2 capabilities and FireWire, 1394, connection.

•Fast and Efficient Editing

When shooting is finished, mount the DR-HD100 to a Mac or PC editing system like a typical FireWire hard disk drive. Transfer clips to your NLE's media drive at up to 400 Mbps or edit instantly in real-time using the DR-HD100 as your media source. With some DV and HDV compatible NLE systems, it is necessary to capture the video footage using the NLE system’s capture capability.

•Confidence in Recording

Now, simultaneously record to disk and tape while you shoot, providing an immediately available, drop out free, edit source with an archive and backup on tape.
