dB typical)
|
Full
DSP
(Digital Signal Processing)
|
Advanced
full DSP for high signal stability and superb picture
performance under all lighting conditions. DSP integrates many
new features which enhance the picture quality and improve the
operation of the camcorder:
- 16:9/4:3 switchable aspect
ratio
- TruEye Signal Processing (for
natural contrast reproduction even under extreme lighting
conditions)
- DynaLatitude Function
- Skin Tone DTL function
- Black-Stretch/-Compress
Function

|
26-pin
CCU control capability |
- Via the 26-pin CCU-M5AP can be
connected to provide studio operation capability. For
extended flexibility, the RM-M7G can be connected to the
DSR-570WSP. The distance between the CCU and the DSR can be
as much as 300m !!
- The 26-pin connector can also
be used to connect to an external VTR to perform backup or
parallel recording
|
Scene
file storage |
- The DSR-570WSP has a function
of scene file. Settings of the camera can be stored in
customer settings area and can also be stored on a DVCAM
cassette, this solution is much more economic than using a
specific memory
|
High
resolution 1.5" B&W viewfinder (DXF-801) |
For
exact focusing and picture control. DXF-801 includes many new
features:
- automatic aspect ratio
switching (16:9/4:3)
- VF-Light LED to light up the
focus & iris ring of the zoom lens (high/low/off
switchable)
- 3 Tally lamp levels switchable
(high/low/off)
- vertical and horizontal
DTL-peaking, adjustable by potentiometer
- TAKE tally lamp for ClipLink
function
|
Low
Power Consumption |
- DSR-570WSPL features only 24W
power consumption, thus a BP-L90A battery can feed the
camcorder for about 220 minutes (!)
|
Compact
& Lightweight |
- The DSR-570WSPL is very
compact and fits perfectly on the shoulder.
- the weight balance is
optimized to support long-term shoulder shooting
- the camcorder only weights 6.3
kg (operational weight incl. lens, tape and BP-L40A battery)
so that long-term shoulder operation is possible
|
DynaFit
Shoulder Pad |
- The DynaFit™ shoulder pad
allows hours of operation without painful pressure points as
common with conventional harder shoulder pad types.
|
Video
Light Connector |
- Optional light equipment can
be connected directly to the camcorder and powered from the
video light connector. The light can be synchronised with
the VTR Start/Stop switch or switched manually on/off.
|
Electronic
Colour Temperature Adjustment |
- DSR-570WSPL allows to switch
the colour 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
|
Jog
Dial Menu Control |
simplified
menu operation esp. under timecritical ENG production
applications |
DVCAM
Recording |
- all the DVCAM Format benefits
(*)
- Reliability vs Consumer DV
format
- long recording time (184 min)
using PDV184ME DVCAM-tape
|
ClipLink
System |
- DSR-570WSP records ClipLink
Data while shooting
- In combination with many non
linear systems, such as EditStation, Purple, … this
information is forwarded from acquisition to editing and
thus enhances productivity and operating efficiency
|
ClipLink
Remote Control
(RM-LG1)
|
- RM-LG1 was specifically
designed to remote control the ClipLink function:
- MARK / CUE / NG indication can be operated remotely from
the camcorder
|
Freeze
Mix Function |
- This function superimposes a
previously recorded image on the viewfinder, allowing the
operator to easily frame or reposition a subject when a shot
must be taken in the same framework as the previous one.
|
Edit-Search
Function |
- Function to quickly access to
edit points
|
Setup
Log Function |
- Automatic recording of camera
setting data for each shot onto the VAUX portion of a DVCAM
tape
- After the shots you can still
now all information such as : What Iris value, gain, filter,
etc… value you used
|
Professional
Audio Features |
- 48 KHz / 32 kHz recording with
16-bit quantization
- 2 XLR inputs are switchable :
- Line Input
- Mic Input
- Attenuated Mic Input
- AGC (automatic gain control)
or manual adjustment
|
Time
Code Settings
(Rec run and Free run)
|
- Possibility to control the
Time Code and set the exact requested value
|
i.Link
output |
- 6-pin iLink interface to
output the digital video/audio signal
- enables back-up recording on
portable DVCAM VTRs (with iLink interface)
- iLink interface supports
control signals (cut-editing possible with DSR-500WSPL)
|
Analogue
Composite Input (option) |
Composite
signal input via DSBK-501 (plug-in board). Camcorder can record
external source material on location via BNC-connector. |
2.05.04 CCU Operations 
DSR-570WSP and DSR-370P have a VTR / CCU
26-pin connector so that it can directly control of the mutlicore CCU,
CCU-M5A without camera adapter.
Maximum transmission distance will be
depending on system configurations.

Note:
- The video light should be under 30W
such as Ultra light 25W from Anton Bauer, PAG light 20W from PAG etc.
- GENLOCK distance is max.150m.
- When the camcorder is controlled
from CCU, remote controller at camcorder side connected to Remote 1
or Remote 2 cannot be used at the same time.
- While in CCU operation mode and
battery pack is mounted on the camcorder, power will be supplied
from battery side automatically.
- The camcorder power switch should
be turned off when the power supply is changed from CCU to other
power supply equipment. Or it may hang up and need to re-start.
2.05.05 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-570WSP
When in 16:9 mode: OFF, 4:3, 13:9,
14:9, 15:9 safety zone indication selectable
When in 4:3 mode: OFF, 13:9, 14:9,
15:9, 16:9
Common Setup File for DSR-570WSP and
DSR-370P 
Setup file for shooting condition
memory function, is also provided for DSR-370P and for DSR-570WSP as
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.
