VF detail  
Various functions are provided for the VF detail signal,  
which can be added only on images on the viewfinder  
screen in order to facilitate focusing in various situations:  
Functions for coloring the VF detail signal, flickering the  
VF detail signal by adding modulation, thickening the VF  
detail signal, and automatically compensating the VF  
detail level according to the zoom position.  
Overview  
The HDC1000R is a 2/3-type high-definition video camera  
for studio and OB-van use for 2,200,000 pixels. It  
incorporates the latest pickup elements and digital signal-  
processing LSI to yield higher picture quality and higher  
stability in image creation while maintaining conventional  
popular functions and operability.  
Focus assist indicator  
The focusing level indicator on the viewfinder screen  
provides a guide for focusing. The best focus setting can be  
easily determined by observing fluctuation of the level  
indicator as a guide.  
Features  
“Memory Stick1) operation  
High picture quality and high performance  
The new 2/3-type Progressive IT CCD for 2,200,000 pixels  
conforms to driving formats up to 1080/59.94P, achieving  
high sensitivity and low smear. In addition, the 14-bit A/D  
converter and a unique signal-processing LSI provide  
picture quality of optimal grade.  
The camera is equipped with a “Memory Stick” port,  
which enables setup data storage and software upgrading  
using a “Memory Stick.”

Multiple formats  
Various color-reproduction functions  
The HDC1000R covers 1080/50i and 59.94i  
interlace,1080/23.98PsF, 24PsF, 25PsF, and 29.97PsF  
Progressive Scan (PsF) systems. It also covers 720/50P  
and 59.94P systems. Signal output of 1080/50P and 59.94P  
from the camera head is possible via the Dual Link  
interface.  
Selection of multiple gamma tables  
Seven types of standard and 4 types of hyper gamma tables  
are provided with this camera. The hyper gamma values  
enable cinemalike image creations with wide dynamic  
range, which are different from those achieved with  
conventional video gamma.  
Newly designed unit with low center of  
gravity  
The basic design has been reworked. The stylish  
appearance with low-slung design permits the viewfinder  
to be mounted at a low position, making the viewfinder  
position closer to the optical axis of the lens for highly  
efficient operations.  
HZC-UG444 User Gamma Application Software  
Installing the HZC-UG444 User Gamma Application  
Software enables the camera to support CvpFileEditor  
TM  
and RGB4:4:4 outputs.  
For details, refer to the HZC-UG444 Operation Manual.  
Multimatrix color correction  
In addition the standard 6-axis matrix function, the camera  
has a multimatrix function that permits you to adjust the  
hue and chroma for color components in 16-axis directions  
independently. This is quite useful in color matching  
among multiple cameras.  
Auto Lens Aberration Compensation  
function  
The Auto Lens Aberration Compensation function  
(ALAC) is provided with this camera. This automatically  
reduces chromatic aberration of magnification when a lens  
that supports auto aberration compensation is attached.  
Knee saturation  
Change of hue and decrease in chroma that occur in  
highlighted areas can be compensated.This enables  
reproduction of natural skin tones under strong lighting.  
For details on lenses supporting auto aberration  
compensation, contact a Sony sales representative or Sony  
service representative.  
Low key saturation  
Focus assist functions  
The VF detail function and focus assist indicator function  
facilitate focusing.  
Hue and saturation in low-key zones can be compensated.  
Thus, compensation for color reproduction in all zones is  
enabled in combination with matrix color compensation  
and knee saturation functions.

Versatile detail control functions  
Basic System Configuration  
Skin-tone detail function  
Examples of devices and parts that may be used with the  
HDC1000R are shown on the next page.  
This function allows control (emphasis or suppression) of  
the detail level for just a certain hue or chroma area in the  
image, by creating a detail gate signal from color  
components of your specified hue, such as skin tones.  
The detail levels of three hues can be adjusted  
independently at the same time.  
Note  
Production of some of the peripherals and related devices  
shown in the figures has been discontinued.  
For advice on choosing devices, please contact your Sony  
dealer or a Sony sales representative.  
Detail boost-frequency control  
The boost frequency can be adjusted from 20 to 30 MHz.  
This allows the detail thickness to be set appropriately for  
the subject, thus enabling more subtle image expression.  
H/V ratio control  
The ratio between horizontal and vertical detail can be  
adjusted.  
White/black limiter  
The white and black details can be limited independently.  
Easy menu-based setting  
Selections and settings for viewfinder display items,

screen which indicates 80%, 90%, 92.5%, or 95% of the total screen area.  
3) Center marker: A cross-shaped marker which indicates the center of the  
viewfinder screen.  
Wide variety of viewfinder display options  
Along with items such as operation messages, a zebra  
4)  
pattern, a safety-zone marker, and a center marker,  
camera settings may also be displayed on the viewfinder  
screen. Furthermore, there are other indicators arranged  
above and below the viewfinder, such as a tally lamp,  
battery warning indicator, and an indicator to tell you that  
one or more settings are other than standard. This makes  
it simple to check the status of the camera.  
4) Zebra pattern: A stripe pattern displayed on the viewfinder screen which  
indicates the portions where the video level is above about 70% or 100%.  
Used to check the video level of the subject.  
Optical digital transmission  
The camera uses electro-optical coding cable for 1.5-  
gigabit digital optical transmission between the camera  
and a Camera Control Unit.  
Prevention of electrical shock  
When the power connection is unsafe, the power supply  
from the connected Camera Control Unit will be shut off.

Smear  
When an extremely bright object, such as a strong spotlight  
or flashlight, is being shot, vertical tails may be produced  
on the screen, or the image may be distorted.  
Precautions  
Note on laser beams  
Laser beams may damage the CCDs. If you shoot a scene  
that includes a laser beam, be careful not to let a laser beam  
become directed into the lens of the camera.  
Aliasing  
When fine patterns, stripes, or lines are shot, they may  
appear jagged or flicker.  
Do not subject to severe shocks  
Damage to the case or internal components may result.  
Operation and storage environment  
Store in a level place with air conditioning.  
If the unit gets wet, make sure it is completely dry before  
storage.  
Avoid use or storage in the following places:  
• Extremely hot or cold places  
• Places with high humidity  
• Places with strong vibration  
• Near strong magnetic fields  
• In places where it receives much direct sunlight, or near  
heating equipment  
Dew condensation  
If you move the camera from a very cold place to a warm  
place, or use it in a damp location, dew may form on the  
lens or inside the camera.  
The camera has no built-in dew indicator. If you find dew  
on the body or lens, switch the camera off and wait for the  
dew to disappear for about one hour.  
Phenomena Specific to CCD Image  
Sensors  
The following phenomena that may appear in images are  
specific to CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensors.  
They do not indicate malfunctions.  
White flecks  
Although the CCD image sensors are produced with high-  
precision technologies, fine white flecks may be generated  
on the screen in rare cases, caused by cosmic rays.  
This is related to the principle of CCD image sensors and  
is not a malfunction.  
The white flecks especially tend to be seen  
• when operating at a high environmental temperature  
• when you have raised the master gain (sensitivity)  
This product has a compensation function and the problem  
may be alleviated by automatic black balance adjustment.
