Three 2/3-inch type Full-HD Power HAD FX
CCDs
The PMW-500 is equipped with three 2/3-inch type
2.2-megapixel full-HD progressive CCDs - the same
sensors as used in Sony’s well-proven PDW-F800/700
XDCAM Professional Disc HD422 camcorders. Based
on Sony Power HAD FX sensor technology and the
latest on-chip lens structure, this type of CCD offers a
high sensitivity of F11 at 59.94i (F12 at 50i) and an
excellent signal-to-noise ratio of 59 dB.
SxS Memory Cards Combine High Transfer
Speeds and High Reliability
Both SxS PRO™ and SxS-1™*
1
memory cards use the
PCI Express interface to achieve an extremely high
data-transfer speed of 1.2 Gbps with SBS-64G1A/
32G1A and 800 Mbps with the other SxS memory
cards. They can resist considerable shock (1500 G)
and vibration (15 G). Also, a unique Salvage function
serves to restore content damaged by power loss or
memory disconnection during recording*

.
In addition, with an optional MEAD-MS01 or
MEAD-SD01 Media Adaptor*
3
, a high-speed
Memory Stick™ or SD memory card*
4
can be used
as emergency recording media.
*1: SxS-1 memory cards support fewer re-writes than SxS PRO
memory cards. Notification is given when an SxS-1 memory
card approaches its end of life.
*2: In some cases, images recorded just before an accident
may not be restored (several seconds). No guarantee is given
on always achieving content restoration.
*3: UDF (MXF) mode, Slow Motion and the Salvage function are
not supported.
*4: For information about memory devices, please contact your
nearest Sony office or authorized dealer.
HD 1920x1080 and 1280x720 Recording Using
the MPEG HD422 Codec
The PMW-500 records and plays back high-definition
video with 1920x1080 and 1280x720 resolutions up to
50 Mbps using MPEG-2 4:2:2P@HL compression
technology. Also, the PMW-500 can record high-
quality 24-bit four-channel audio.
Various Selectable Recording Modes and
Video Formats
In addition to high-quality MPEG HD422 50-Mbps
mode, the PMW-500 can record and play back
videos at different bit rates and in a variety of video
formats. The PDW-500 supports both the broadcast-
standard MXF file wrapper and IT-standard MP4 file
wrapper. In UDF mode (MXF), which is compatible
with the recording formats of the XDCAM
Professional Disc Series, and in FAT mode (MP4/AVI),
which is compatible with the XDCAM EX Series,
XDCAM Browser, supplied software, can very rapidly
convert files between formats, as no transcoding
process is required.
Long Recording Time
With highly efficient MPEG-2 Long GOP compression
and a large-capacity SxS memory card, the
PMW-500 can record high-quality HD422 50-Mbps
images for a long recording time of 120 minutes on a
single 64GB SxS memory card. The SxS memory card
can be hot-swapped with two cards while shooting,
without interrupting the recording.
