An Ideal Handheld Camcorder Design
Sony has responded to professional user feedback to
create the ideal handheld camcorder with
ergonomically designed body-weight balance and a
well-planned layout of buttons and connectors to reduce
camera operator fatigue.
Sony's new HVR-Z7U is the world's first
professional handheld HDV camcorder with
an interchangeable lens system.
The compact design makes it easy to use
and flexible when shooting applications
requiring mobility and in space-constrained
locations.

New XtraFine LCD and EVF Offer
High-resolution, High-contrast Images
XtraFine™ LCD
A 3.2-inch type XtraFine LCD is located on the HVR-Z7U in
the same position as on the HVR-Z1U.
The high pixel number of approximately 921,000 dots is
around four times greater than the LCD of the HVR-Z1U,
and this higher resolution allows for easier focus
adjustments.
XtraFine EVF

approximately 1,227,000 dots (852x3[RGB]x480).
This device has three independent LEDs for R, G, and B
colors. This technology allows users to check objects with
remarkable color reproduction and resolution*. The EVF has a
selectable display mode between color or black and white.
*When the camcorder is panned quickly or when an object in the
screen moves quickly, the primary colors of R/G/B may be seen on the
object in the EVF momentarily.
Common Features of the XtraFine LCD and EVF
•100% full-scan display – helps you to check the entire
recorded area.
