Expanding the HDV Format
as a Global Standard
The HDV 1080i specification uses one of the
“MPEG2 Long GOP” compression profiles. This
highly efficient and robust "MPEG2 Long GOP"
codec – which is also used in Sony’s XDCAM
®
HD
and XDCAM EX
™
series – enables users to record
stunning-quality HD video. The HVR-Z5U provides
over 60 minutes*
3
of recording time using the
widely available mini-DV videotape.
*3 When using Sony's recommended Professional HDV tape
DigitalMaster™ model PHDVM-63DM, an approximate
recording time of 63 minutes is possible.

Switchable Recording and

TM
/DV
The HVR-Z5U can switch between HDV 1080i, DVCAM,
and standard DV recording, providing the ultimate
flexibility to suit your production needs. Native editing
in the HDV format is now supported by most popular
NLE (nonlinear editing) software. Additionally, HDV
can be recorded as a memory file on inexpensive
computer media. The optional HVR-MRC1K Memory
Recording Unit records to standard CompactFlash
®
cards that can be quickly and easily exchanged for
nonlinear editing. Sony Professional CompactFlash
cards are recommended to ensure optimal
performance. The optional HVR-DR60 Hard Disk
Recording Unit’s large-capacity 60GB hard drive
provides 4.5 hours of recording time.
Built-in Down-converter for
SD Production
The HVR-Z5U can convert material from 1080i down
to 480i and output the video signals through its i.LINK
®
interface and other SD output connectors. This
allows users to edit recorded material with a
compatible nonlinear editing system using current
DV editing software, as well as record SD signals to
an external VTR.
