DVCAM Digital Component Recording Format
The DSR-20 employs the DVCAM format which uses 8-bit digital
component recording with 5:1 compression ratio and sampling at the
rate of 4:1:1 to provide high picture quality and multi-generation
performance. Long-duration Recording Capability
There are two sizes of DVCAM video cassette tapes; standard
size and mini size. Maximum 184-minute recording is possible with
a standard size cassette (PDV-184ME) and 40-minute recording with
a mini size cassette (PDVM-40ME). In spite of the narrow tape width
(1/4-inch or 6.35 mm) and compact cassette size, long recording
time is achieved by the use of Sony's advanced ME (Metal Evaporated)
tape. LANC Editing
The DSR-20 is equipped with a LANC interface. By connecting the
DSR-20 to the other LANC-equipped VTR such as the DSR-30, DSR-200A
or DSR-PD1, it is easy to achieve Time code based editing. With
the optional FXE-120 Video Editing System or ES-3 EditStation System
connected, the DSR-20 can serve as a feeder player in a professional
A/B roll Editing system. External Sync In for Synchronized Playback
The DSR-20 is equipped with an External Sync Input, which enables
synchronized playback with other VTR's. This allows synchronized
playback for multiple VTRs.
