color temperature electronically (via menu). Thus, the 5600K
optical filter does not need to be employed (saves 2/3
f-stop of sensitivity under daylight conditions).
- adjustment of color
temperature over a very wide range to achieve artistic
painting effects or/and to influence the overall color
reproduction

2.04.07 Other information and new
features
Intercom Adapter CA-370
The current DSR-300A/500WS does not have
intercom capability, but newly introduced Intercom adapter CA-370 as an
optional accessory is to support the studio system with CCU-M5A/P. The
CA-370 can connect a DR-100 headset and has an audio volume control. In
addition, it has a V-shoe mount so that smart dock to the camcorder is
realized.
External VTR control & monitoring
via i.Link connector
DSR-370/570WS series have a VTR TRIGGER
MODE setting to control internal and external VTR operation change
capability. When VTR TRIGGER MODE is selected as “INTERNAL”, then
the camcorder can be controlled from an external VTR via i.Link. So
DSR-370/570WS series can be operated as a feeder in simple editing.
When the VTR TRIGGER MODE is selected as
“EXTERNAL” or “PARALLEL”, then they can control Recording or
Recording Pause mode of an external VTR with VTR START/STOP switch via
i.Link. (these functions are same as DSR-300A/500WS.)
In addition, it is capable to check the
external i.Link VTR playback video on DSR viewfinder screen when
DSR-370/570WS’s internal VTR status is “CASSETTE OUT”.
It is only for monitoring and cannot be
recorded to DSR-370/570WS from external i.Link VTR.
New Ni-MH New battery attachable
The new Ni-MH battery BP-M50 and BP-M100
can be used with DSR-370/570WS by V-shoe mount. The battery remaining
indication on the camcorder is set as “Auto” as a factory preset. So,
the battery type is automatically recognized when Ni-MH battery is used
and indicated as “nI-H” on VTR menu window.
Flexible setting of safety zone maker
In order to support variety of video
aspect ratio, safety zone marker can be selected from Advanced menu as
follows:
DSR-370P
OFF, 13:9, 14:9, 15:9, 16:9
Common Setup File for DSR-570WSP and
DSR-370P

well. It can select one of 5 factory preset files (standard, high
saturation, fluorescent light, film-like and S-VHS/VHS condition setting)
and 3 user files.
Most Important it implement the
SetupNavi™ function allowing to store all the information on a DVCAM
tape. This solution avoids the use of a more expensive memory.
Audio level monitoring through the
side panel
For easy check of the audio level
while shooting, there is a small see-through window on the VTR side
panel.
New lens VCL-719BX with “shuttle
shot” function
