The Digital 8 Format offers up to 500 lines of horizontal resolution, 3x color bandwidth (vs. VHS) and significantly higher S/N (signal to noise) ratio, to provide stunning video performance on easy to find, inexpensive 8mm or Hi8 cassettes. Since this camcorder will play back your current 8mm and Hi8 tapes, you don't have to worry about backwards compatibility. Adaptive Frame Interpolation combines both fields of a video frame into a single frame and smoothes out jagged, stair-step images to improve still image quality. The Advanced Data Code automatically records date, time, and camera setting data onto tape, which can be displayed at any time. With Analog Record Capability you can record from an analog source and convert to digital for editing and archiving. Plus, all the advantages of digital stereo audio (with dubbing capabilities), direct digital downloading and an array of special digital effects.Now you can capture video even in total darkness (0 Lux). Sony's NightShot system uses infrared light to capture images invisible to the human eye. You can shoot video of subjects like sleeping babies from up to 10 feet away in total darkness. The Super NightShot system in this camcorder, automatically adjusts the shutter speed for even better exposure and greater detail than the standard NightShot system. SteadyShot Picture Stabilization removes unwanted picture shake using built-in motion sensors and Hyper-Precision CCD technology. This system is more accurate than most other image stabilization systems because it doesn¹t degrade or manipulate image size or quality.In addition to impressive digital video performance, this camcorder can also capture quality digital still images on Memory Stick media (additional memory cards are available, in sizes up to 64 MB). This not only improves resolution, it makes it easier to locate and use the digital still images you've recorded in e-mails, websites, presentations, desktop publishing or any of a myriad of other applications. The built-in USB interface on this camcorder enables you to download from the camcorder to another USB enabled device like a PC, so you don't need an adapter or Memory Stick reader to begin taking advantage of this incredible technology. Owning a Memory Stick compatible camcorder also opens the door to a world of compatible Memory Stick products, including PCs, PC adapters, printers and even digital photo frames.With the i.LINK (IEEE 1394) digital video interface, it's easy to edit your video on any PC that has a video capture board, an IEEE 1394 interface and editing software. When the i.LINK interface is used for video editing, your PC will control your camcorder's fast-forward, rewind and play functions. It becomes a simple matter to cut out boring parts and drag and drop the scenes you want into any order you please. Then you can add effects, music, titles, transitions and other creative enhancements that give your videos a polished and professional look. PC editing is the fast, fun and creative way to arrange the moments of your life exactly as you would like to remember them. Another advantage to the i.LINK interface is that it enables you to make pristine digital to digital copies to another Digital Handycam camcorder or a wide range of other products from a growing list of computer and consumer electronics brands. Since Digital8 uses the same compression and editing protocols as DV, the formats are compatible for editing and dubbing. Unlike VHS and other analog formats, digital copies are clones of the original with no generation loss to be concerned about. With i.LINK dubbing, your tenth generation copy will look as good as the first.The LaserLink wireless connection system allows you to beam videos from your camcorder to your TV from up to 16 feet away. No cables needed, just an optional IFT-R10A infrared receiver (sold separately). And with TV control, it automatically turns on most Sony TVs and selects the proper input for instant playback.
