Bringing a New Level of Functionality
and Robustness to HDV Productions
– the HVR-1500 HDV Recorder
The HVR-1500 is an HDV
TM
source feeder/ recorder*
1
positioned at the top of the Sony HDV
Series.
Inheriting the design concept of the market-acclaimed DSR-1500A, the HVR-1500 offers the
same convenient features that professional users demand, such as quick mechanical
response, multi-format DV playback, and a rich set of professional video/audio interfaces
ranging from analog to digital SDI and AES/EBU. The HVR-1500 also offers HD-SDI output
and RS-422A control capabilities, bridging HDV source footage and assets with high-end HD
formats and HD editing equipment.
In addition, with the optional HVBK-1520 board installed, the HVR-1500 has a range of
conversion capabilities that allow DV recordings to be up-converted to 1080i or 720P signals,
and 1080i HDV recordings to be cross-converted to 720P signals. This allows operators to
integrate DV and HDV source footage and assets into the same HD editing system, and gives
them the flexibility to choose between either a 1080i or a 720P system.
The HVR-1500 can also be used as a standard definition DVCAM
TM
recorder, in which case
the same editing features as the DSR-1500A are offered.
The HVR-1500 is certainly the HDV recorder of choice for environments where robustness
and functionality are prime concerns.
