The HDW-700 HD Camcorder combines a HD color video camera,
which uses 2/3-inch FIT
elements, with an HDCAM portable videocassette recorder. Its excellent
portability and dust- and water-proof construction make it ideal as a
camcorder for ENG
700, which is the Digital BETACAM model. The introduction of a new
method of processing HD digital signals improves the image quality
even further and simplifies setup (initialization) operations.
