    This camcorder is fitted with a new 1/3inch interchangeable lens system allowing customers either to use the supplied Carl Zeiss lens or use a whole range of other lenses available on the market.

    • Flexible usage - the camera can be used for a myriad of different applications using different lenses, from TV work, through to budget movie making and with the use of stills lenses, wildlife videography.

    • NEW 1/3inch CMOS Processor

      Newly developed 1/3inch x 3 ClearVid CMOS processor offers high resolution, high sensitivity, wide dynamic range and excellent colour reproduction.

      • Offers greater resolution than existing pixel-shift technologies regardless of the balance between colour elements.
      • Offers great low-light capabilities especially important for camera operators who cannot control their ambient lighting, e.g. wedding videographers.
      • Lower power consumption than traditional CCD's.
      • 'Exmor' technology employed in the new CMOS processor reduces noise in the A/D process.

    • NEW Selectable 25p Progressive Modes

      The HVR-S270E offers the ability to choose between a 25p scanning mode (same as HVR-V1E) but also a 25p 'native' recording mode. In this native recording mode the picture is both scanned and recorded as a progressive image.

      • Further improves the progressive reproduction by both scanning and recording progressively.
      • Provides further flexibility of use. e.g. The camera can be used for a variety of applications from budget-movie making in 25p mode to standard interlace TV productions.
      • Offers camera operators the use of the progressive 'filmic look', coupled with gamma curve correction makes the camera ideal for movie production.

      • Full Size HDV/DV/DVCAM cassette capability

        Since the launch of HDV, many customers have requested all the benefits of HDV but with a large shell shoulder camcorder. After considering the requirements of this customer group, Sony have developed this new camcorder to offer large shell cassette recording.

        • Large Shell HDV tapes offer a massive 4.5 hours of HD recording with PHDV276DM HDV master tape.
        • This is ideal for a whole wealth of different customer groups from documentary makers keen on keeping the camera running as long as possible, through to wedding videographers covering long ceremonies.
