HVR-DR60 HARD DISK RECORDING UNIT 
Mountable on Sony HDV and DVCAM camcorders, the HVR-DR60 Hard Disk Recording Unit can streamline the entire production process.
Long Recording Time of 4.5 Hours
Via a simple i.LINK connection, the HVR-DR60 Hard Disk Recording Unit developed by Sony allows recording of HDV 1080i signals from an HDV camcorder, or DV signals from a DVCAM camcorder. The internal 1.8-inch hard disk drive (HDD) offers a large capacity of 60 GB, which translates into a long recording time of 4.5 hours (270 minutes ) for both formats.
HDV 1080i signals are recorded as native HDV files (.m2t)*13, while DVCAM or DV signals are recorded as DV-AVI (type1)*13 or RAW-DV*13files.

Hybrid Operation for
Reliable Recording and Archiving
The HVR-DR60 offers a hybrid recording function, in which video and audio material is recorded simultaneously to the hard disk and tape, so important shots are always secured against loss or accidental deletion. This hybrid function also facilitates instant archiving of source footage – which in most cases does not allow for retakes. After a shoot, operators can immediately archive the source tape and use the HVR-DR60 material as work footage. This saves the time and effort required to copy the original data to a separate high-capacity medium.
