The HDR-fX1000 HDV Camcorder

Since their sensational debut in 2004, Sony HDV camcorder 
products adopting the HDV 1080i specification have provided 
and continue to provide cost-effective HD program production. 
With high picture performance and superb functionality, Sony 
is trusted around the world for a wide range of HD applications. 
In line with its commitment to the HDV format, Sony introduces 
the HDR-FX1000 – a stunning new model that extends the HDV 
line-up into the world of digital cinema and drama productions.

The HDR-FX1000 offers 24p and 30p progressive scanning, in 
addition to 60i interlaced. The images captured at 24p are 
recorded on tape at a 60i field rate through means of 2:3 
pull-down. 

In its compact, lightweight and ergonomically designed chassis, 
the HDR-FX1000 camcorder integrates advanced technologies 
such as the newly developed 1/3" ClearVid

 CMOS Sensors with 

Exmor

 derived technology imaging system - which is only made 

possible by Sony’s industry-leading semiconductor technology - 
and a stunning 29.5mm Wide-Angle to 590mm Telephoto 
(20x optical zoom) G-Lens. Such features enable operators to 
capture vibrant, highly detailed HDV images with an extreme 
level of mobility, ease of use and operational comfort suited 
for any shooting scenario.

In addition to HDV 1080i recording and playback*, the camcorder 
also offers DV recording and playback capabilities. This bridge 
between HD and SD allows the camcorder to be used in any 
DV-compatible system, whether it uses the HDV, or DV format.

* HD viewing requires compatible HDTV and HDMI

 cable, both sold separately.
