The camcorder has two types of
progressive shooting modes:
1. 24p/30p HDV Native Progressive
Recording Mode
The camcorder features
24p/30p native progressive
recording mode. The 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor
system and EIP create true 1080p images, which
can then be recorded as progressive signals by the
HVR-Z5U in HDV format.
The progressive HDV stream can be output from an
i.LINK connector and used for progressive editing
with compatible NLE software. Native progressive
recording modes are suitable for output to film, CG
composition, viewing on a progressive monitor, or
as an Internet movie.
Note: interlaced video is output from connectors other than
i.LINK.
2. 24p/30p Progressive Scan Mode
In these modes, the 1080p image captured by the
3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor system is also recorded
as an interlaced signal by dividing each frame
into two fields. This enables compatibility with
current editing and monitoring equipment that
only accept interlaced signals, while maintaining
the quality of the 1080p image. When using the
“24p scan” setting, captured images are recorded
as 60i through means of 2-3 pull-down conversion.
Progressive scan modes are suitable for feature
films, documentaries, and music videos, which have
to be recorded as interlaced video for viewing on
interlaced monitors, but want to offer a “progressive
look” to their motion.
It is also possible to edit footage recorded in the
“24p scan” mode as progressive material.
NLE software that is compatible with the “24p scan”
mode can remove the 2-3 pull-down, then edit the
footage as 24p material*
5
. For 30p, most NLE
software can output the edited timeline in
progressive format by merging odd and even fields.
Furthermore, the “24p scan” mode is available in
not only HDV recording but also DVCAM/DV
recording. It means the HVR-Z5U provides
SD-quality 24p footage as well.
*5 When 24p editing is needed with the “24p scan” mode,
select the “24A” setting in the “Scan Type” menu instead of the
“24” setting. This setting records the 2-3 pull-down identification
data in the HDV stream, so that compatible NLE software
knows when to remove the 2-3 pull-down cadences. In the
24A setting, interruptions in time code and video may appear
between recordings when viewed on an HDV device. There is
no “24A” setting in DVCAM and standard DV modes.
The camcorder is
ready for HDV/DV
HYBRID operation
with the optional
HVR-MRC1K Memory Recording Unit. In HYBRID
operation, you can simultaneously record video
footage to tape and to a standard CompactFlash
card. The HVR-Z5U has a special shoe connector*
6
for direct attachment of the HVR-MRC1K without
the use of a cable. This smart combination never
interferes with shooting operations. The
ergonomically integrated design provides easier
handling in any shooting situation. The HVR-MRC1K
automatically synchronizes with the recording
commands of the HVR-Z5U. Various recording
options are available when using the HVR-MRC1K
in HYBRID operation. These include Synchronous
recording, Relay recording, or HVR-MRC1K-only
recording. Furthermore, the HVR-Z5U can display
HVR-MRC1K status information on its LCD for
convenient reference. The display data includes
Connection status, REC status, and the remaining
CompactFlash recording time. It is very convenient
to be able to monitor the operation of HVR-MRC1K
without having to check the rear display panel.
*6 The intelligent shoe connector inputs and outputs an HDV/
DV stream and supplies power to the HVR-MRC1K Memory
Recording Unit. The i.LINK connector is not available when the
unit is attached to the camcorder.
