2/3" 3-CCD image pickup
High-quality/resolution
The GY-DV700WE incorporates three 2/3" true
16:9 IT CCDs that combine with an F1.4 prism
to provide sensitivity of F11 at 2,000 lux and
exceptionally sharp pictures. Each CCD is
equipped with highly advanced circuitry that
virtually eliminates vertical smear, ensuring
quality pictures even when shooting into bright
lights or dark environments. Colour reproduction is faithfully reproduced
throughout the whole digital range.
Native 16:9/4:3 switchable
With more and more high-end television production and
independent movie producers turning
to digital video for their production
needs, the advantages of selectively
shooting the original footage in the
4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio of the finished
programme are obvious. The higher
pixel density of the 2/3" 16:9 CCDs
provide beautiful results in either
aspect ratio, without aliasing or re-
scaling artefacts. Native 16:9 makes
a big difference for large screen
projection, high definition up-
conversion or 35-mm blowup.
2/3" bayonet lens mount
The GY-DV700WE’s standard “B4
type” professional 2/3" bayonet lens
mount is compatible with the widest
selection of lenses, including standard
TV lenses, switchable aspect ratio,
cine style prime lenses and high-
definition lenses.
High-quality performance
Professional DV recording on a MiniDV tape
The GY-DV700WE combines the
convenience and affordability of
readily available MiniDV cassettes
with the high-quality camera
performance you need for professional
use. A single MiniDV cassette can
record up to 80 minutes* of high-
quality 8-bit, 13.5 kHz, 4:2:0 DV
component digital images and can be
