Details
Compact and feature rich, the Sony DCR-PC109 MiniDV Handycam? is the perfect camcorder for people who demand quality and convenience.
Featuring a large 2.5? hybrid Swivel Screen? LCD display, SuperNightspot? Plus infrared recording system, Super Steady Shot? image stabilization, and a big 1.0 mega pixel Advanced HAD? imaging device, the DCR-PC109 provides all the punch of a camera twice its size. Combined with Memory Stick DUO? media, it even doubles as a digital camera, able to take pictures as large as 1152 x 864 pixels.
What really sets it apart from the competition, though, is its innovativeHandy cam? Station, which provides quick and easy connection between the camcorder and your TV, VCR, or computer. Now, viewing your footage is easier than ever before. Plus, it provides power to the camcorder and charges the battery while you wait, assuring you a full charge whenever you use it.
Features:
1/5" Advanced HAD? (Hole Accumulation Diode) CCD with 690K (effective) pixels provides excellent detail and clarity, with exceptional video performance (up to 520 lines of horizontal resolution). Realize great looking digital still images utilizing 1000K (effective) pixels. The Megapixel technology enhances your digital videos and digital still photography performance.
The optical zoom helps to bring the action up close from far away. In addition, the digital zoom interpolation means that extreme digital zooming is clearer, with less distortion than previous types of digital zooms.
Placing the DCR-PC109 on the suppliedHandy cam Station provides a quick and easy connection between the camcorder and a TV/VCR for easy viewing, or a USB or i.LINK? supported computer for video and still image editing. It also supplies power to the camcorder for charging the battery.
Provides excellent viewing clarity with improved resolution. The 123K pixel LCD display makes images sharp and detailed during playback or when monitoring recording. The Hybrid Reflective-Tran missive LCD Screen provides accurate viewing in sunlight or bright light, virtually eliminating the ?wash-out? common with traditional LCD Screens.
Capture digital still images at 1152 x 864 or 640 x 480 resolution, directly onto Memory Stick Duo? media for easy transfer to PC?s for emailing, printing, or sharing with other compatible Memory Stick? devices.
Mechanical shutter system that provides Progressive Scan performance while utilizing an interlace scanning system. Digital still images will be sharp and clear with excellent definition.
Convert and/or record any analog NTSC video source to digital video via the analog inputs. Analog NTSC video can also be passed through the digital Handy cam camcorder directly into a PC via the i.LINK? interface in real-time for easy PC editing of your analog footage.
Charge the battery at any time because unlike NiCad (Nickel Cadmium) batteries Sony?s rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries are not subjected to a life shortening ?memory effect?. Sony?s exclusive AccuPower? meter displays the battery time remaining in minutes, in the viewfinder or the LCD screen.
An advanced version of Sony?s Steady Shot? system that controls an even higher range of shake and vibration frequencies, to achieve an even higher level of smoothness without degradation of video like some other image stabilization systems.
16-Bit offers the same outstanding sound quality as compact disc. 12-Bit recording enables you to add an additional audio track with compatible audio dubbing equipment or i.LINK?* interface compatible computers.
