120GB
HDD High Definition Camcorder
The HDR-XR200V records stunning, 1920 x 1080 high definition video and crystal clear still photos to a
built-in 120GB
hard disk drive. In addition, the HDR-XR200V features a GPS receiver that can display
your current location and remember where you shot your video, as well as Optical SteadyShot™
image stabilization with Active Mode for superior image smoothness.
1920x1080 high definition video
recording:
1920 x1080 high definition resolution lets
you record your memories in
exceptional Sony® Full High Definition
quality .
4 megapixel still image capture:
4 megapixel still image capture lets
you take high resolution digital photos.
120GB hard disk drive:
A built-in 120GB hard disk drive can
record and store approximately 48
hours of high definition video footage
(HD LP mode), or up to 84 hours of
standard definition footage (SD LP
mode). In addition, “HDD Smart
Protection” gives you peace of mind by
helping to prevent any recorded video
and images from being lost if the
camcorder is accidentally dropped.
Geotagging with built-
in GPS receiver:
A built-in GPS receiver makes the HDRXR200V an ideal choice for travelers. In
addition to automatically adjusting
your camcorder's clock to the proper
time zone, the GPS receiver also gives
you the ability to view your current
location on the LCD map display, as
well as "tag" your shooting locations.
Tagged videos and still images can be
reviewed and played back using the
Map Index function on the camcorder
or once downloaded to your PC using
the supplied PMB (Picture Motion
Browser) software
Map Index function:
Map Index uses the geotagging
capabilities of the built-in GPS receiver
to "tag" your shot locations on a map
in the camcorder, offering a new way
to easily search and find a desired
scene by location or view where a
scene was captured.
Face Detection technology for Video
Footage and Digital Still Photos:
Made possible by the BIONZ™ image
processing engine, Face Detection
technology recognizes up to 8 faces
anywhere in the frame and by selecting
the most prominent, automatically
controls focus, exposure, and color to
help capture smiling faces brightly and
clearly. Face Detection technology also
helps make skin tones look natural
without affecting other colors in the
image. On AVCHD models, the
camcorder allocates encoding bits on
detected face areas prior to encoding
other parts of the picture, making them
sharper and clearer. In still picture
mode, Face Detection technology sets
the flash level to optimize picture
clarity.
Smile Shutter
™ technology for still and
dual capture:
Smile Shutter™ technology lets the
camcorder automatically take still
photos when your subject smiles, even
while shooting high definition video.
You can also set the sensitivity and
choose child, adult, or auto priority.
Optical SteadyShot™ image
stabilization with Active Mode:
Optical SteadyShot™ image
stabilization with Active Mode
represents the next step forward in
Sony® image stabilization technology.
Active Mode improves on existing
Optical SteadyShot image stabilization
by allowing the camera lens to shift
over a greater range of motion. This
allows the HDR-XR200V to compensate
for greater degrees of camera shake
and deliver a stunning level of image
smoothness.
Highlight Playback:
Why spend hours editing your movies
when you can let your camcorder do it
for you? Highlight Playback uses
several criteria -
including Face Index,
Smile Shutter™ technology, Dual
Capture and time range - to identify
and compile key scenes into a short,
entertaining movie complete with
music and transitions.
