In this mode, the 1080p image captured by the 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor system is also recorded as an interlaced signal by dividing each frame into two fields. Note: interlaced video is output from connectors other than i.LINK.

Native progressive recording modes are suitable for output to film, CG composition, viewing on a progressive monitor, or as an Internet movie. The progressive HDV stream can be output from an i.LINK connector and used for progressive editing with compatible NLE software. The 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor system and EIP create true 1080p images, which can then be recorded as progressive signals by the HVR-Z5U camcorder in HDV format. The HVR-Z5U camcorders newly feature 24p/30p native progressive recording mode. The HVR-Z5U has two types of progressive shooting modes.Ģ4p/30p HDV Native Progressive Recording Mode

The i.LINK connector is not available when the unit is attached to the camcorder. * The intelligent shoe connector inputs and outputs an HDV/DV stream and supplies power to the Memory Recording Unit HVR-MRC1K. It is very convenient to be able to monitor the HVR-MRC1K's operation without having to check the rear display panel. The display data includes Connection status, REC status and the remaining CF recording time. These include Synchronous recording, Relay recording or HVR-MRC1K only recording.įurthermore, the HVR-Z5U can display HVR-MRC1K status information on its LCD for convenient reference. Various recording options are available when using the HVR-MRC1K in HYBRID operation. The HVR-MRC1K automatically synchronises with the recording commands of the HVR-Z5U. The ergonomically integrated design provides easier handling in any shooting situation. This smart combination never interferes with shooting operations. The HVR-Z5U has a special shoe connector* for direct attachment of the HVR-MRC1K without the use of a cable. This will allow an operator to shoot HD on tape and CF card, SD on tape and CF card or HD on tape and SD on CF card - depending on their requirements. In HYBRID operation you can simultaneously record video footage and audio to tape and to a standard CompactFlash (CF) card.

The HVR-Z5U is ready for HYBRID operation with the optional HVR-MRC1K Memory Recording Unit.
