LAS VEGAS (CES, Booth #14200), Jan. 4, 2006 -
Sony is taking the lead in bringing the focus on audio
performance to the camcorder market with its new 2006 Handycam ®
models.
Leading the pack are two high-end DVD models and Sony's first
hard disk drive camcorder. All models feature built-in Dolby
Digital 5.1 channel surround sound and a unique center-channel
microphone capability.
"Nothing preserves memories better than moving images with
sound," said Linda Vuolo, director for camcorder products at
Sony Electronics. "We are offering new enhancements to both
audio and video performance in our 2006 product line."
Hearing Is Believing
Now when you record your child's lead performance in cinematic
surround sound, you can be sure that his or her voice will stand
out clearly in the troupe.
The new DCR-DVD505 and DCR-DVD405 DVD Handycam models support an
optional wireless microphone that can be clipped to your subject
while shooting. The microphone then amplifies the center channel
sound in the camcorder's Dolby Digital 5.1-channel surround
sound system.
Thanks to Bluetooth technology, voices and sounds can be
recorded wirelessly at distances up to 100 feet.
In addition to audio enhancements, Sony is bringing new ClearVid
CMOS SensorTM technology to the DCR-DVD505 model. The layout of
this new sensor is engineered to increase the number of recorded
green pixels in order to boost image resolution and better
enable the human eye to distinguish precise detail.
Combined with Sony's Enhanced Imaging Processor ®, ClearVID CMOS
technology offers a host of user benefits. For instance, the
camcorder not only records stunning video but also four-megapixel
still images. Its Dual Record function allows users to shoot
video and capture a three-megapixel still image simultaneously.
Other benefits from the CMOS technology include the smooth slow
record function that allows you to view scenes in slow motion.
Three seconds of video are played back in 12 seconds - ideal for
analyzing your golf swing or tennis back-hand.
The DCR-DVD505 model stands out from the camcorder crowd thanks
to its two-megapixel ClearVID CMOS sensor, compact body design,
and wide 3.5" touch panel SwivelScreen ™ LCD with Clear Photo
Plus ® technology for brighter images with high-contrast that
are easy to view in virtually any environment.
In total, Sony is introducing five new DVD Handycam camcorders.
Across the DVD line, you find Carl Zeiss optics for exceptional
video quality, improved menu functions and access controls for
greater ease of use, and enhanced digital still functionality.
Most models record digital still images in ratios of 4:3 and
16:9, perfect for slide shows on widescreen TVs. A Memory Stick
Duo ™ slot has been incorporated into select models so that
images can be transferred easily from DVD disks to memory cards
and vice versa. And with higher still image capability on these
new models, PictBridge technology has been integrated for
seamless PC-free printing.
