VideoProduction  
Now many new models have been added to the DSR Series to broaden its  
range of applications such as field acquisition/editing, simple editing,  
PC-based editing, dubbing and transmission.  
Select from the Sony DSR Series and you will have chosen innovative  
equipment that will bring both new solutions to your production demands  
and performance benefits to your system.

Excellent Picture Quality via  
Digital Component Recording  
sub code area assure highly accurate editing performance.  
This technology provides much greater operational flexibility and  
facilitates complex multi-layering effects.  
The DVCAM format uses 8-bit digital component recording with  
a 5:1 compression ratio same as the DV format and a sampling  
rate of 4:1:1 to provide excellent picture quality and superb  
multigeneration performance.  
High Quality Digital Audio  
The DVCAM format is based on an intra-frame compression  
scheme which is ideal for editing applications. Based on DCT  
(Discrete Cosine Transform) techniques, each frame consists of  
10 tracks. Each track has video, audio, ITI (Insert and Track  
Information) and sub code areas. ITI, which is a reference  
The DVCAM format also has superior digital audio performance,  
with a wide dynamic range and an excellent signal-to-noise ratio  
that is comparable to CD quality audio. There are two selectable  
audio channel modes: a two-channel mode with 48 kHz/16-bit  
recording or a four-channel mode with 32 kHz/12-bit recording.

Video  
The DVCAM format is a professional version of the consumer DV  
format, maintaining playback compatibility. All DVCAM equipment  
is capable of playing back DV recorded* tapes without any  
adaptor. A wider track pitch of 15 µm (compared with 10 µm for  
consumer DV) gives the DVCAM format higher reliability for  
professional editing.

High-speed Data Transfer  
•i.LINK™* (DV In/Out)  
The advanced drum mechanism and SDTI(QSDI™) interface  
enable degradation-free data transfer and dubbing at four times  
normal speed between the DSR-85 VTR and the Sony ES-7  
EditStation™ system, or between two DSR-85 VTRs.  
This brings a remarkable reduction in the time-consuming  
uploading and dubbing process, without loss of picture and  
sound quality.

i.LINK is a digital interface based on the IEEE1394 standard.  
It offers digital dubbing of video, audio and data, with virtually no  
deterioration of image and sound quality and with the simplicity  
of a single wire connection between equipment.

•SDTI(QSDI)*  
ClipLink™ Operation  
The SDTI(QSDI) is a digital interface which handles compressed  
video as well as the sub code data and digital audio signals of  
the DVCAM format. It allows virtually degradation-free transfer of  
both video and audio signals between DSR Series VTRs that  
have an SDTI(QSDI) I/O, and between these VTRs and the  
ES-7 EditStation system in a non-linear editing configuration.  
The SDTI(QSDI) interface ensures that high quality pictures and  
sound are maintained during these operations.

ClipLink is a unique Sony system which conveys shooting data  
into the digital production process. During acquisition with the  
DSR-130 or DSR-300 Camcorder, the time code data of the  
in-point and out-point of each shot is recorded in the Cassette  
Memory of the DVCAM tape. At the same time, a still frame of  
each in-point, called the ‘Index Picture’, is recorded on the DVCAM  
tape to provide visual information associated with the time code.  
When a cassette is loaded into the DSR-85, DSR-80, DSR-60 or  
DSR-70 VTR interfaced with the Sony EditStation system, all of its  
shot log information is loaded into an EditStation system and  
appears on the
