The camcorder, which uses the same G lens as Sony’s HVR-Z5U camcorder, will record AVCHD up to 24Mb/s, delivering 1920 x 1080 HD images with both interlace and progressive modes along with native 1080/24p, 720/60p and MPEG-2 SD recording. The camcorder will include both HD-SDI and HDMI outputs, as well as two-channel linear PCM audio capabilities.
