Sony HD CAM HDW F500

The HDW F500 is a High Definition VTR which plays and records in HD Cam format. This deck offers full resolution (1920 x 1080) and 4:2:2 digital 10-bit component video utilizing HD Cam compression.

Handles Multiple Frame Rates
The switchable frame rate allows playbacks and recordings to be made at 23.98, 24, 25, 29.97 and 30 frames per second progressive, and 50, 59.94 or 60 fields per second interlace.

Audio
Audio capabilities include (4) 20-bit channels, capable of handling Dolby "E" encoded audio tracks. Also included is HD SDI (with 4 channels of embedded audio) and AES/EBU audio interfaces.

Additional Bonuses
Using 24P with HD Cam stock has become especially popular due to its increased recording time: a typical HDCAM cassette holds 124 minutes of 60 Hz HD material, but can hold 155 minutes of 24P HD material - a 25% increase. The F500, which utilizes the HD Cam format and supports playback and recording in 24P mode, allows users to take advantage of this added benefit.
