Sony SLR Handycam Smooth Slow Record, Handycam Dual Record, Handycam HDD Smart Protection System

HANDYCAM Smooth Slow Record

Smooth Slow Record allows you to record fast action scenes and play them back smoothly in slow motion. It can be used to analyze a golf swing or tennis stroke. Three seconds of footage is recorded at a Higher (100fps) frame rate and then played back over 12 seconds at normal speed (25fps). The net result is that the motion is slowed down to quarter speed without any of the jerkiness that would usually occur. You can even decide to record the 3 seconds of footage after it has occurred so that you never miss that ‘one off’ event.

q DIGITAL IMAGING

HANDYCAM Dual Record

This Function allows simultaneous recording of still pictures while recording video. This means that if you are shooting video footage you can take a high resolution still image at the same time without interrupting your video recording. Dual Recording is made possible due to the inherent characteristics of CMOS sensors coupled with a newly developed advanced imaging processor which can handle the higher data rates involved.

HANDYCAM HDD Smart Protection System

All Sony HDD Handycams have a unique HDD protection system to protect the Hard Drive and prevent data loss. A mechanically-floating Shock Absorber is built in to protect the HDD from physical jars and a 3G Gravity Sensor detects a fall or bump taking place and removes the HDD write head from the platter to stop any physical contact that may occur. Finally, a Video Stream Buffer enables video to continue recording even during a fall or bump. While the HDD head is removed from writing, the video information is stored in buffer memory and is written to the disc once the fall or bump has ceased and the HDD has returned to normal operation.

HANDYCAM One Touch DVD Burn

Transferring video footage from your HDD Handycam onto DVD Discs has never been easier. Simply Connect the HDD Handycam to your computer* with the supplied USB2.0 cable and then simply push the DVD Burn button. The camera and software does the rest. Footage is downloaded from the HDD Handycam to your computer at extremely fast speeds (up to 15x Real Time) and the software then creates a DVD from that footage. If there is more footage that can fit on one disc, then as many discs as needed are created.

Complimentary to this is the Easy PC Backup feature which intelligently downloads and stores on your computers HDD only video footage that you have not already downloaded. For example, if you have already downloaded 5 hours of footage from last week (and not deleted it off your HDD Handycam) and then you record an extra 1 hour of footage today, then the easy PC backup feature wont re-download those original 5 hours again but will only download the new

1 hour of recording you have done.
