HDV 1080i Specification
3CCD Camera System with 1080i HD CCDs
The HDV 1080i specification for the HDV format features
1080 effective scanning lines (interlace scanning system) and
1,440 horizontal pixels. It adopts the MPEG-2 compression
format (MP@H-14 for video), which uses 8-bit digital
The HVR-Z1U incorporates three 1/3-inch type 1080i HD CCDs,
each with a 16:9 aspect ratio, a total pixel number of 1.12 M
(1,012 x 1,111), and an effective pixel
number of 1.07 M (972 x 1,100).
component recording with a sampling rate of 4:2:0. MPEG-1
Audio Layer II is used as the audio compression format,
allowing for two-channel recording with a sampling frequency
of 48 kHz/16-bit. The HDV 1080i specification provides high
picture quality that can be used for HDTV program production.
The combined 3CCD system achieves a
resolution of 1,440 x 1,080 by adopting
the precise spatial offset technology
and interlace scanning system.
1 The HDV format also defines the HDV 720p specification, which features 720
effective scanning lines (progressive scanning system) and 1,280 horizontal pixels.
14-bit HD DXP
The HVR-Z1U incorporates a high-integrity 14-bit HD DXP
(Digital eXtended Processor), which features a 14-bit A/D
converter and advanced camera processing. This 14-bit HD
DXP can process the high-quality images captured by the
1080i HD CCDs with greater precision than conventional
10-bit A/D LSIs. In particular, this higher bit resolution allows
the contrast to be reproduced more faithfully in mid-tone
areas of the picture. The 14-bit HD DXP also enables highly
sophisticated image controls, such as Cinematone GammaTM,
and Color Correction functions.

Zoom Lens
The HVR-Z1U is equipped with a new Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar® T*
high definition lens with a 12x zoom function. Its fully
coated glass is the same as used on Carl Zeiss prime lenses,
producing sharp, high-contrast images, with virtually no
chromatic aberration. This lens is designed with a wide
viewing angle, and a focal length ranging from 32.5 mm to
390 mm in 16:9 mode2, and from 40 mm to 480 mm in
4:3 mode2, thanks to a large filter diameter of 72 mm.
2 These values are calculated to be equivalent to the 35 mm film.
Compatible with Existing and
New DV Video Cassette Tape
To realize the full potential of HDV, DVCAM and DV formats,
professionals choose Sony DigitalMaster tape. While the HDV
format can accept conventional DV tape, only DigitalMaster
tape has a dual layer of magnetic material. The result? Higher
RF output, lower noise, 95% fewer errors and 60% fewer
dropouts compared to DV tape! Exactly the performance that
professionals require.
Optical Super SteadyShot System
The HVR-Z1U employs the Super SteadyShot® system,
whereby horizontal and vertical movements can be detected
independently by the sensors. The prism system located
behind the lens adjusts and optically compensates for
unsteady camera handling, and a choice of SteadyShot
function types – “HARD”, “STANDARD”, “SOFT” or
“WIDE CONV”3 – can easily be selected.
3 Select “HARD” to activate the SteadyShot functionality with stronger
effect than “STANDARD”.
Select “SOFT” to activate the SteadyShot functionality with softer effect
than “STANDARD”.
Select “WIDE CONV” for the most effective SteadyShot functionality when
the optional VCL-HG0872 wide conversion lens is attached.

standard or high definition depending on production needs.
In addition, it can be switched between 60i and 50i modes
(NTSC and PAL), allowing for flexible productions without the
need for two separate camcorders with each standard.

advanced HD Codec Engine Feature,
which efficiently compresses base band
HD signal data at approx. 25 Mb/s with
MPEG-2 compression, while maintaining
optimal HD quality. Designed for reduced energy consumption,
this powerful digital signal processor fits perfectly inside the
compact and streamlined body of the HVR-Z1U.
Down-conversion Playback Capabilities
i.LINKTM5 Interface
The HVR-Z1U can convert material from 1080i down to 480i
and 576i, and output these video signals through its i.LINK®
interface. In addition, these signals can also be output via
either analog component, composite, or S-video connectors.
This allows editing of recorded material with a nonlinear
editing system using current DV editing software as well as
recording SD signals to an external VTR, while simultaneously
recording HDV signals with the HVR-Z1U. The HVR-Z1U can
also down-convert to 480p and 576p and output these
signals through its analog component video connectors.
The HVR-Z1U is equipped with a 4-pin i.LINK interface.
This allows for on-cable digital transfer6 of audio, video, and
command signals to a connected, compatible VTR or
nonlinear editing system in the HDV, DVCAM and DV formats.
5 i.LINK is a trademark of Sony Corporation used only to designate that a
product contains an IEEE 1394 connector. Not all products with an i.LINK
connector will necessarily communicate with each other. For information on
compatibility, operating conditions and proper connection, please refer to the
documentation supplied with any device with an i.LINK connector. For

AF Assist
Time Code Preset
The AF (Auto Focus) Assist function allows operators to focus
on desired subjects when using the AF mode. Operators can
manually change focus positions using a focus ring during AF
mode, allowing AF reference focus positions to be shifted to
manually changed positions. This is useful, for example, when
operators want to focus on subjects far away through a window.
The time code can be preset using any number in H/M/S/F
(hours/minutes/seconds/frames) to record desired tape-position
information.
The time-code mode can be selected between “REC RUN”
and “FREE RUN”. In addition to the time code, user bits can
also be set.

are required during the scene transition – for example, when
shooting subjects moving from the background to the
foreground of a scene. In addition, a start timer function is also
available for the Shot Transition function, helping to prevent
operators from missing a shot. Transition types can be selected
from a choice of “LINEAR”, “SOFT STOP”, and “SOFT TRANS”,
transition time can be set from 2 to 15 seconds, and the start
delay time can be selected from 5, 10 and 20 seconds.

the other colors black and white. This provides interesting
in-camera color effects that can emphasize particular colors
