The Format that Means Quality And Extra Peace of Mind!

Digital Betacam uses 10-bit component digital recording to provide superb picture quality and multi-generation capability. Conforming to the ITU-R BT 601 standard adopted for the D-1 format, it records a 4:2:2 digital component video signal together with four channels of 20-bit/48 kHz digital audio.

Bit Rate Reduction (BRR) technology has made it possible to provide very efficient handling of video signals. Digital Betacam uses very mild intrafield data compression of about 2:1. Applying data compression within each field avoids aliasing, ensuring outstanding multi-generation performance.

Because of its robustness, reliability and high-end performance, Digital Betacam has been accepted as the industry standard for the production and postproduction of demanding and sophisticated programmes. A large number of postproduction houses world-wide offer Digital Betacam based editing. Digital Betacam has also become the dominant digital format for programme interchange, with a large majority of broadcasters using it as their preferred transmission format. Many industry awards for innovation and technology had been awarded to Sony for the Digital Betacam. Digital Betacam is the format that means quality and offers extra piece of mind to production teams and broadcasting organisations.
