Description

Recording and playback in DV and DVCAM format The video recorder supports recording and playback of DV-format cassettes in SP mode as well as DVCAM format. When using a standard-size cassette, recordings of up to 270 minutes are possible in DV format. i.LINK connection The integrated 4-pin i.LINK interface allows complete cassettes to be copied. Audio, video and control signals can also be transmitted directly to a computer. Analog video and audio connections Numerous connections are available for integration into existing analog systems. These include Composite, S-Video and Component for video signals, as well as separate 4-channel XLR outputs for analog audio. RS-422A and RS-232C interfaces The RS-422A interface allows the device to be used as a feeder in a professional A/B-roll editing system. The basic functions of the video recorder can be controlled by computer via the RS-232C connection. Timecode input and output The device has inputs and outputs for Timecode. This allows the Timecode to be synchronized with external devices, which is particularly helpful when copying material. Transfer of Timecode signals via i.LINK Timecode signals from other sources can be copied via the i.LINK interface. This function is particularly practical when video material has been edited on a computer or in a nonlinear editing system and provided with a new Timecode. Color bar generator and tape transport counter An integrated signal generator produces color bars, which can be activated via the setup menu. In addition, a tape transport counter is located on the front panel. This supports the editing of Timecode data and monitoring of the workflow. Remote control included The RMT-DS5 remote control is included. It can be used to conveniently control menu navigation and settings. Since most of the video recorder’s functions can be operated by remote control, the device is also particularly suitable for presentations.
