Sony HVR-Z1E HD Camera

Affordable migration to High Definition

Providing HDV with the 1080i Standard and joining the existing DVCAM range, the HVR-Z1E offers users an affordable migration path from Standard Definition whilst retaining the popular DVCAM benefits such as ease of use and i.LINK (IEEE1394) connectivity. In addition to its compact size, the HVR-Z1E boasts a number of features over consumer-oriented products making it ideal for the professional user.

An affordable way to enjoy High Definition
Through the HDV format Sony’s HVR-Z1E allows you to capture High Definition pictures on a standard DV format cassette – providing both a highly cost effective format and full 1080 line resolution.

The ability to choose the most appropriate recording format for your production
With the Sony HVR-Z1E, you are able to switch between HDV, DVCAM and DV recording giving you full flexibility to record in either Standard or High Definition depending on your production needs.

Designed for Professional Use
As a professional product, Sony recognises that your needs are different to that of a consumer. As a result the HVR-Z1E incorporates more than 40 extra functions over the consumer camcorder HDR-FX1E to help support you and your production needs.
