Sony HDRSR7 Overview

The Sony 'DEMO' HDR-SR7 AVC HD 60GB Hard-Disc Handycam Camcorder is the industry's first direct to Hard Disc Drive, AVCHD camcorder. The HDR-SR7 shoots in genuine 1080i resolution, for real unparalleled HDTV clarity. Its professional quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens captures brilliant images with life-like color and tones, while the 3.2-megapixel CMOS processes faster than a CCD for richer color and better detail. The Progressive Shutter System supplies digital still images with excellent definition and sharpness.

This camcorder comes with a variety of features, including 20x digital zoom, 16:9 widescreen mode, a hot shoe, a USB 2.0 interface, and Dolby Digital 5.1 audio. In addition, it features a 60GB hard drive, so that you can download directly to your favorite video software, without bothering with tapes.

10x Optical 20x Digital Zoom
Equipped with a 10x optical zoom that lets you close-in on your subject with a pure optical quality, and the 80x digital zoom that lets you go all the way out for incredible close-ups.
1/2.9" CMOS Sensor
The CMOS sensor has nearly 2 million effective pixels that provide incredible clarity. It delivers faster image processing than a CCD, meaning richer color, greater detail, and less glare from objects.
2.7" Wide Hybrid LCD
You can use the monitor to check wide-angle shots in digital HD. Because it is a hybrid system, you can still see the LCD monitor outside, even on the brightest and most sunny days. With its 211,000 pixels, the pictures are extra clear and rich for easy detailed viewing.
16:9 Widescreen Recording Mode
16:9 recording mode uses the full width of its CMOS sensor to capture video in actual widescreen for superior playback on home theater systems and PC monitors. Just click the Widescreen Button and switch effortlessly from 4:3 to 16:9.
High Quality Carl Zeiss Vario Sonnar T Lens

Super NightShot Plus Infrared System
The Super NightShot Plus Infrared System lets you capture natural-looking video from distances as great as twenty feet.
Active Interface Shoe
This hot shoe gives you the option of adding accessories such as lights, flashes, and microphones to the camcorder. These accessories can also communicate and draw power from the camcorder through the Active Interface Shoe.
