CA-WR855 Camera Adaptor
(for the WRR-855A)
A new wireless receiver case has been
developed specifically to accommodate
the Sony WRR-855A Wireless Receiver.
The Sony CA-WR855 Camera Adaptor
attaches directly to the DSR-300 via
a V-shoe attachment and a direct
audio/power connection interface.
A Lithium-ion battery can also be directly
attached to the rear panel of the
CA-WR855 via the V-shoe attachment.
This allows easy battery replacement
even when the WRR-855A is mounted.
●
Simple Matrix Adjustment
The DSR-300 has a three-mode matrix
adjustment for optimum color
reproduction in different shooting
environments. This control provides
alternative chroma saturation and hue
parameters for different light conditions -
STD (Standard), H.SAT (High Saturation)
and FL (Fluorescent light).
●
SetupLog™ Function —
Data management setup with
DVCAM cassettes
Information of the most relevant
DSR-300 setting parameters for every
shot is automatically recorded on the
videotrack Video Auxiliary area of
DVCAM cassette tapes. This function is
called SetupLog. It is useful for the
camera operator not only when the
same shot has to be re-taken, but also
when re-shooting or operating
conditions have to be checked during a
particular shoot.
●
Dual Zebra
The DSR-300 has two simultaneous
types of zebra patterns - ‘ZEBRA 1’ and
‘ZEBRA 2’. ‘ZEBRA 1’ can be set within
a range of 70 IRE to 90 IRE, in 1 IRE
steps. ‘ZEBRA 2’ provides a zebra
pattern in any area with a more than
100% video level. Either ZEBRA 1 or
ZEBRA 2 can be displayed. Dual zebra
display - to show both ZEBRA 1 and 2 -
is also possible.
●
MONITOR OUT with
Superimposed Characters
(ON/OFF Switchable)
The DSR-300 is equipped with a
MONITOR OUT connector (BNC). By
connecting an external picture monitor,
the user can check shooting conditions
with superimposed characters displayed
on the viewfinder. This character
superimposition can easily be switched
ON or OFF using the MONITOR OUT
CHARACTER switch under the
right-side cover of the operational panel.
●
Supplied Switch Guard
A removable Switch Guard is provided
with the DSR-300 to help prevent
mis-operation of the EZ Mode, AUTO
IRIS Mode and ATW buttons. It simply
covers these buttons, when they are not
in use. The guard has five tiny holes for
operator to see the LED indicators for
the EZ mode,
BACKL, STD, SPOTL (A. IRIS) Mode
and ATW buttons while shooting.
The DVCAM Format
Based on the DVCAM format, the
DSR-300 delivers high quality, efficient
recording capabilities.
●
DVCAM Recording Format
The Sony DVCAM recording format has
high video and audio quality and
reliability for professional use. The 8-bit
component digital recording with a 5:1
compression ratio and sampling at the
rate of 4:1:1 provides superior picture
quality, a superb multi-generation
capability and excellent production
flexibility.
●
Long Recording Time
(maximum 184 minutes)
The DSR-300 boasts remarkably long
recording time. Both mini cassettes
(PDVM series) and standard cassettes
(PDV series) can be used with the
DSR-300. In using the PDV-184ME
(Standard cassette) the DSR-300
provides a maximum recording time of
184 minutes.
●
Consumer DV Playback
The DSR-300 is capable of playing back
the consumer DV format, which is one of
the great advantages of the DVCAM
format.
●
26-pin VTR Interface Capability
With the 26-pin VTR interface, the
DSR-300 can feed camera output
signals to an external recorder. This
function enables parallel recording or
back-up recording by using an external
VTR. Depending on the external VTR
connected to the DSR-300, camera
output signals can be selected from
component/VBS or Y/C signals by using
the EXT VTR OUTPUT switch on the
operational panel. Also, VTR Recording
Mode is selected from PARALLEL,
INT (Internal) ONLY and EXT (External)
ONLY by using the VTR TRIGGER
switch positioned on the operational
panel.
