Picture Stability

By its very nature any digital or video camera delivers rock

steady pictures. The HDW-F900R is no exception. The 

picture stability is particularly relevant for productions 

incorporating multi-layered compositing special effects.

Image weave, compounded by noise, is the enemy of all

compression algorithms. The emergence of highly 

compressed MPEG-based delivery systems, including DVD

and digital transmission using multiple GOPs (Group of

Pictures) calls for a high level of picture stability to maintain

picture quality – and digital acquisition is a major boon. 

Texture

Because of its very good signal to noise ratio performance,

the HDW-F900R delivers subjectively noiseless and 

grain-free pictures having the finest, most delicate and almost

transparent texture. This can exploit the use of subtle 

cosmetics on the human face, as well as superb reproduction

of fine-textured materials. This is extremely beneficial in

commercial production. It is also particularly useful when

working on productions that require multi-layering and 

blue-screen effects. The separation between useful 

information and unwanted grain or noise is straightforward

and delivers accurate and spectacular results.

Stop Motion and Time Lapse

With the HKDW-703 Picture Cache Board as standard, the

HDW-F900R offers a frame-by-frame recording capability

that provides stop-motion and time-lapse modes of operation

in-camera. This offers new and innovative creative 

opportunities in both animation and model shooting.
