The HDW-S2000/S2000P is a high-definition (HD)
digital videocassette recorder based on the HDCAM
format.
This unit uses large scale integrated circuits for signal
processing, and has a simple internal construction,
allowing it to provide functionality at least equivalent
to a conventional VTR in a compact (4U size),
lightweight, and low power consumption design.
In addition to HDCAM format recording and
playback, this unit can also play back tapes recorded in
the Betacam SX, and analog Betacam formats.
HDCAM format
The HDCAM format uses the same 12.65-mm width
tape as the conventional Betacam series. It provides
high definition images, offering up to two hours of
recording. For video signal compression, prefiltration
and coefficient recording technologies are used.
