Introduction The AJ-HDC27V integrates two units: 1) a highdefinition (HD) color video camera featuring an ITCCD equipped with a 1 million pixel on-chip lens that supports the full spectrum of HD TV (720P/59.94 Hz), and 2) a DVCPRO HD format VTR that incorporates the latest compression technology.
Features Features of the camera unit Wide-ranging video gain selection A value ranging from –6 dB to +30 dB can be selected for the gain using the setting menu and GAIN switch. Even when the gain is increased for shooting in dark locations, images with minimal noise can be obtained because of the high signal-to-noise ratio. The super gain function can be allocated to the USER button, and 30 dB can be selected using this button.
Features Features of the VTR unit Digital system The pictures are compressed by a component digital recording system that uses the latest compression technology while non-compression PCM recording featuring excellent signal-to-noise ratio, frequency band, waveform characteristics and reproduction of detailed areas is employed for the sound. The result is an even higher picture and sound quality. Built-in DOLBY NR system The cue audio recording circuitry contains a Dolby B noise reduction circuit.

Recording From adjusting the white balance and black balance to stopping the recording This section describes the basic steps for shooting and recording. Before actually departing to shoot scenes, carry out inspections to ensure that the system is functioning properly. O For details on how to perform these inspections, refer to “Inspections prior to shooting” (pages 111 to 114). Turn on the power, and after inserting the cassette, set the switches as shown in the figure below.

Recording Scene-to-scene continuity Ensuring scene-to-scene continuity at other times If the unit is in the rec-pause mode, it is possible to ensure scene-to-scene continuity with an accuracy of 0 up to 1 frame just by pressing the VTR START button or lens VTR button. If the unit is in a mode other than rec-pause, the point at which the scene-to-scene continuity is to be maintained must be located before recording is started.
Playback (checking what has been recorded) When the PLAY/PAUSE button is pressed, the playback pictures can be monitored in black and white on the viewfinder screen. These playback pictures can be monitored in two other ways. Rec review Color playback When recording is temporarily stopped and the lens RET button is pressed, the last two seconds of the tape are automatically rewound, and the playback pictures on this part of the tape appear on the viewfinder screen.
