Native File Recording, Immediate Import & Editing

Native File Recording

No File Re-Wrapping, No Re-Encoding and No Waiting

Native File Recording — the ability to record directly to the native file formats of non-linear editing systems — is the feature that will accelerate and streamline your production teams’ workflow both in the area of ENG and in the post production.

Needless to say, these gains in production efficiency translate directly into significant cost savings for your business.

Common File Wrapper with QuickTime™ MOV & XDCAM EX™ MP4 Formats

ProHD memory card camcorders are designed to support most professional non-linear editing systems. Users of Apple’s Final Cut Pro™ can record directly in QuickTime™ MOV format, while XDCAM EX™ MP4 file format* recording ensures broad compatibility with other major NLE systems, including those from Avid, Adobe and Canopus. Support for native file formats eliminates any loss of quality when video is brought into the NLE system for editing.

*GY-HM700 requires the optional KA-MR100G SxS memory card recorder for XDCAM EX™ MP4 file-based workflow.

Note:

•Playback compatibility may not be guaranteed on the different types of products due to variation of supported recording mode.

•MP4 is the compliant file format used on the XDCAM EX™.

•SxS is a flash memory card designed for professional video cameras with a high-speed PCI Express interface.

Save Operating Expenses

Integrating ProHD memory card camcorders into your existing workflow can reduce operating costs on three fronts: The simplified, streamlined workflow makes it possible to reduce total ENG and newsroom staffing; the on-going purchase

of consumables and the need for frequent expansion of server capacity is reduced; and compatibility with the lower bit-rate Super Encoded HD format means more efficient use of leased fiber and microwave bandwidth.
