MPEG IMX CAMCORDER

Ever since the launch of the Betacam® system concept 20 years ago, Sony half-inch camcorders have
set distinctive milestones in the evolution of news reporting and program production operations.
The analog Betacam and Betacam SP™ formats introduced a new freedom for mobile acquisition in
ENG (Electronic News Gathering) and EFP (Electronic Field Production), and the Digital Betacam
format was the subsequent innovation that brought true 4:2:2 digital recording into the field. Today,
both analog and digital formats remain in service in virtually every type of program origination,
offering a level of reliability and performance that only Sony Betacam technology provides.
The wide acceptance of the Digital Betacam format paved the way to the subsequent development
of a digital replacement for the analog Betacam format in the broadcast newsgathering world, with
the unique advantage of using MPEG technology for data rate efficiency and high quality video
capture. This was the Betacam SX® format series equipment, which is now known as the ‘digital
workhorse’ for use in the arduous environment of ENG operations.
The rapid success of Betacam SX gear used in ENG applications, together with the advent of DTV
distribution and transmission, was the motivation behind the development of a higher bit-rate MPEG
4:2:2P@ML format for use in broadcast studio operations. Through close collaboration between key
manufacturers and research centers, the prime goal of achieving seamless interoperability between
equipment to provide an open, end-to-end, MPEG-based solution was achieved. The conclusion was
to utilize an I-frame only, MPEG 4:2:2P@ML infrastructure to provide the highest level of efficiency
throughout the entire programming chain. Sony indicated its commitment to the MPEG-based
infrastructure with the introduction of a range of I-frame only, MPEG 4:2:2P@ML equipment,
represented by the MPEG IMX™ studio VTRs, Video Servers, XPRI™ NLE, and MPEG transcoders.
To complete this picture, Sony has now introduced the MSW-900 MPEG IMX camcorder. The
MSW-900 originates 50 Mb/s 4:2:2 digital video with four channels of digital audio by combining all
the benefits of I-frame only, MPEG 4:2:2P@ML recording with the two decades of Sony experience
with

2-inch broadcast camcorders. It inherits the proven advantages of the Betacam format series,

providing the same level of reliability, mobility and operability for which they are famous. In addition,
new and unique camera and recording features are also part of the MSW-900 design.
The MSW-900 is poised to play a vital role as the primary acquisition tool for a complete 50 Mb/s
MPEG-based system solution.

*Two models of the MSW-900 are available: the MSW-900 for NTSC and the MSW-900P for PAL.

Innovative performance
in an MPEG IMX camcorder

High picture quality using MPEG 4:2:2P@ML
50 Mb/s I-frame compression

The MSW-900 employs MPEG 4:2:2P@ML recording, which uses a bit rate of 50 Mb/s to provide
outstanding picture quality. Using MPEG technology, the MSW-900 integrates directly with other
MPEG devices. Combining this high picture quality with MPEG interoperability, the MSW-900
seamlessly works in a wide range of applications including ENG and EFP.

Newly developed Power HAD™EX CCD

The latest Sony development in CCD technology, the Power HAD EX, is incorporated in the
MSW-900 camcorder. This CCD realizes an incredible pixel count of one million picture elements,
a high signal-to-noise ratio of –65 dB (NTSC)/–63 dB (PAL) and an extremely low smear level
(–140 dB, typical). Furthermore, the remarkably high sensitivity of f11 ensures pictures of the highest
quality – even when shooting under low lighting levels.
The MSW-900 can output both 525 (NTSC version) or 625 (PAL version) interlaced and progressive
scan signals to suit emerging programming needs.

New high-performance DSP LSI

The MSW-900 employs a newly developed high-performance
Digital Signal Processing LSI. This device provides comprehensive
and precise control over the high quality images produced by the
camcorder. It builds on the sophisticated DSP technology
developed for Digital Betacam camcorders, making available the
many attractive features of these camcorders such as accurate
tonal reproduction and colorimetry, the storage of complex
parameter setups, and a reduction in power consumption.

Versatile interfaces

The MSW-900 provides an analog composite output as standard, with an SDI output board
(the MSDW-902) available as a plug-in option. An optional composite input board (the MSDW-904) is
also available for pool feed applications. These optional boards install within the camcorder chassis to
eliminate the need for an external camera adaptor unit, maintaining the compactness and balance of
the camcorder.

Compact, lightweight, and low power consumption

The MSW-900 is designed to be extremely compact and lightweight, providing a high level of mobility in
the field. It weighs approximately 5.3 kg (11 lb. 10 oz.) including a viewfinder, microphone, BP-L60A Li-ion
battery and BCT-60MX cassette tape.
With its new-generation LSI, the camcorder achieves a low power consumption of just 27 W.

Extended recording times

The MPEG IMX camcorder provides long recording times, up to 60 minutes for NTSC signals and 71
minutes for PAL. These are achieved by the efficient MPEG compression algorithm, which provides the
optimum balance between image quality and recording time.

Loop/interval recording

The MSDW-903 Picture Cache Board allows two new and extremely useful features to be incorporated
into the MSW-900.
Loop recording is a useful function that allows audio and video signals to be buffered in a memory until
the Record button is pressed. The signals buffered in the memory are recorded to tape at the instant
the REC button is pressed. This capability can avoid the loss of important scenes that may occur
before the operator has time to press the Record button. It is especially helpful for news gathering
applications where a vital, one-off shot, would otherwise be missed. Up to eight seconds of data are
always buffered for recording.
Interval recording is also a unique feature of the MSW-900 camcorder, and operates in a choice of two
modes. In manual mode, up to eight frames are recorded every time the Record button is pressed. In
auto mode, the camera records frames at predetermined intervals over a predetermined time. In both
modes the frames are initially stored in the Picture Cache board and when this is full its contents are
copied to tape. This allows recordings to be made over very long time periods on a single tape and
minimizes wear of the tape drive mechanism.

Dual optical filters

The MSW-900 is equipped with dual optical
filters for Color Correction (CC) and Neutral
Density (ND) for flexible color and exposure
control. The CC filters are CROSS, 3200K,
4300K, and 6300K while the ND filters are
CLEAR, 1/4ND, 1/16ND, and 1/64ND.

Assignable function

Functions frequently used in the field can be
assigned to a push button and a simple slide
switch, allowing the operator to make rapid
changes under field conditions. The following
functions can be assigned.

Tw o-channel audio output

A two-channel audio line output is available
from the 5-pin XLR connector on the rear of the
camcorder. This provides two analog audio
output channels, which are selectable between
either Channel-1/2 or Channel-3/4.

Camera control via 8-pin
remote connector

An optional remote control unit,
the Sony RM-B150, makes it
possible to remotely control the
camcorder’s basic functions via
its 8-pin remote connector.

User-friendly controls

Two important aspects of the user-friendly operation of the MSW-900
are its carefully designed menu structure and the ergonomic design of
the camcorder body.
The menu can be displayed in either of two ways, as a user menu or
sub-menu based system. The user menu can be customized by
operators for the fastest access to the menus they frequently use.
The sub-menu based menu makes all menus accessible, each of which
is categorized into groups such as paint, file and maintenance. This
structure makes it possible to access any menu quickly, eliminating the
need to seek a desired menu from the entire list of menus. Individual
operators are able to choose the menu presentation that they feel
comfortable to use.
The elegant body design has been carefully determined to incorporate
the experience gained from two decades of camcorder operations.
Previous operators of any Sony Betacam camcorder series will
immediately feel comfortable and at home with the MSW-900.

system stores

camera setup parameters

The MSW-900 incorporates the Sony “Memory Stick”
system for the storage and recall of setup parameters.
This is an easy, effective system for storing and recalling
camera parameters for individual scenes, plus individual
operators’ camera setup preferences that include the
settings of assignable switches.

Turbo gain

The MSW-900 provides the Turbo Gain function,
boosting the gain level up to +48 dB at the
touch of a button. This makes it possible to
shoot in extremely low light conditions.

High-quality audio recordings

Audio can be recorded in either 20 or 16-bit
resolution. The recording format provides up to
four channels of 20-bit mode and eight channels
in 16-bit mode. Up to four channels can be
recorded in either mode by the camcorder.
If recordings are made on channels 1-4 in the
8-channel, 16-bit mode, then channels 5-8 are
available for use with a studio VTR. The inputs
to audio tracks 1-4 can be accessed by any four
microphones connected to the camcorder
including the front microphone, and additional
wired or wireless microphones.
The camcorder utilizes a 20-bit A/D converter
instead of the 16-bit type to maximize sound
quality.

Intelligent light system

An optional portable light (max. 50 W) can be directly attached to the
camcorder, using a standard lighting connector and a specially
designed short cable for operation on the comcorder’s battery. The
light can be switched on and off manually, or automatically
synchronized with the REC Start function of the camcorder.

7

Multi-matrix function

Unlike conventional color correction or matrix control, the
Multi-matrix function allows color adjustments to be
applied over a color and/or hue range as specified by the
operator. The color spectrum is divided into 16 areas of
adjustment, where the hue and/or saturation of each area
can be adjusted. This provides interesting in-camera color
effects – similar to secondary color correction.

Triple Skin Tone Detail control

Skin Tone Detail allows control of image enhancement
within user specified color tones. The MSW-900 camcorder
allows enhancement to be set independently for up to
three distinct color and/or hue ranges.
The conventional use of Skin Tone Detail correction is to
reduce the image enhancement in areas of skin tone. With
the MSW-900, correction is not restricted to areas of skin
tones and can be set to apply to any three color areas.
Image enhancement within those three areas can be
increased or decreased relative to the overall image
enhancement of a given scene.

Electronic Soft Focus

The Electronic Soft Focus included in the camcorder
applies an effect similar to using an optical soft-focus
filter – but in a much more convenient way. Electronic Soft
Focus uses the detail signal to reduce, rather than
increase, the sharpness of the picture. By subtracting the
detail signal from the original signal (as opposed to adding
it as in conventional image enhancement), Electronic Soft
Focus is able to provide a picture that is “softer” than that
achieved when detail is switched off completely.
Electronic Soft Focus can be used in conjunction with Skin
Tone Detail to only change the sharpness within a specific
color or hue range.

Selectable gamma table

A selectable gamma table is provided to easily give a
specific look to a picture by selecting from several fixed
gamma patterns.

Auto Tracing White Balance (ATW

)

The MSW-900 offers an Auto Tracing White Balance (ATW)
function that automatically adjusts the camera’s color
temperature in real time with a change of the lighting.
This is especially useful when a shoot is performed across
different environments, such as from indoors to outdoors.

8

Multi-matrix ON

Color temperature control

In addition to the optical color filters, digital color
temperature control is available to give a ‘warmer’ or
‘colder’ look to the picture. Combined use of these two
color temperature control methods allows operators to
meet their creative needs.

TruEyeTMprocessor

The Sony TruEye processor is one of the most innovative
features of Sony digital signal processing technology. This
technology makes it possible to virtually eliminate hue
distortion, particularly obvious in highlight conditions that
result from conventional RGB analog or digital processing.
By processing the video signal data at three levels –
brightness, hue and saturation – similar to how the human
eye works, the TruEye features assists in the reproduction
of natural skin tones.

Meta-data handling

UMID* recording

The UMID is a unique identifier for picture, audio and data
material that is created and globally unique. The MSW-900
automatically generates and records UMID on tape at
every scene change. By adding UMID information during
the acquisition process, future benefits such as easy search
of material during editing, and archive will be realized.
Sony supports UMID as well as Extended UMID** for
further operational convenience.

**UMID is standardized as SMPTE 330M.

**Extended UMID adds Signature meta-data, time, positioning, and

**user information to the Basic UMID.

GPS Unit — HKDW-704

Utilizing the meta-data capability of the MSW-900
camcorder, the HKDW-704 GPS unit has been introduced
to enhance the ability to store Global Position information
in association with the field recorded material.
The HKDW-704 offers real-time recording of global
positioning information on tape as well as the Memory
Stick storage medium. When the camcorder playbacks a
tape that has recorded GPS information, the positioning
information of the shooting site can be indicated on a PC
running map illustration software*. The position data is
also recorded as Extended UMID on the tape keeping the
link between video/audio and positioning data.

*Output format from the REMOTE connector is NMEA and software.

Since the early days of film and television, meta-data such as shot number, slate information
and other production notes has been used increasingly during the production process.
While much of this data has been generated and stored on paper, the use of computers for
storage and management of meta-data has grown significantly.
However the lack of a unique identifier for each segment of material recorded on the filed
tape has made it difficult to link this meta-data to the actual material.
The MSW-900 camcorder now solves this problem by providing the capability to generate
and record a globally unique identifier relating directly with the video material.
This process is made possible by recording UMID (Unique Material Identifier) information.

Tele-FileTMsystem

The Sony Tele-File system stores and recalls various types
of production data, such as shot data and shot marks, onto
and from a cassette label with a built-in memory IC. The
camcorder is equipped as standard with a Tele-File
reader/writer module, allowing this information to be
managed electronically. Use of the Tele-File system can
significantly raise efficiency in the subsequent editing
process and management of archives.

Shot mark and shot data handling

The MSW-900 is capable of recording shot marks (time
codes for ‘good’ shots) and shot data (date, shot ID,
cassette number etc.) to the tape. When a tape
containing shot marks is played back on an MSW-2000
series VTR, the shot mark positions are automatically
detected and a list of all marks is generated for display on
a video monitor. This allows operators to easily select and
cue-up to the scene of interest. The shot marks and shot
data can be utilized for a wide range of applications to
provide more efficiency in the production chain.
