Long Recording Time of 4.5 Hours
Via a simple i.LINK connection, the HVR-DR60 Hard Disk
Recording Unit developed by Sony allows recording of HDV
1080i signals from an HDV camcorder, or DV signals from a
DVCAM camcorder. The internal 1.8-inch hard disk drive
(HDD) offers a large capacity of 60 GB, which translates into
a long recording time of 4.5 hours (270 minutes ) for both
formats.
HDV 1080i signals are recorded as native HDV files (.m2t)*

During playback, interruptions in video may appear between
recordings. These interruptions do not occur after the recordings are
copied to an i.LINK compatible nonlinear editor system via the i.LINK
connection, and the recordings can be correctly edited. For information
on compatible nonlinear editors, please contact your nearest Sony office
or authorized dealer.
HVR-DR60 HARD DISK RECORDING UNIT
Hybrid Operation for
Reliable Recording and Archiving
The HVR-DR60 offers a hybrid recording function, in which
video and audio material is recorded simultaneously to the hard
disk and tape, so important shots are always secured against
loss or accidental deletion. This hybrid function also facilitates
instant archiving of source footage – which in most cases does
not allow for retakes. After a shoot, operators can immediately
archive the source tape and use the HVR-DR60 material as work
footage. This saves the time and effort required to copy the
original data to a separate high-capacity medium.
Mountable on Sony HDV and DVCAM camcorders,
the HVR-DR60 Hard Disk Recording Unit can streamline
the entire production process.
