® DCR-HC65 Digital Handycam® Camcorder With the DCR-HC65, you see a sizeable difference. A 3.5" Touch Panel LCD screen makes shooting easier, and helps in focusing and reviewing your video and still images. Utilize the USB Streaming Feature which turns your camcorder into a video conferencing system that transmits live video and pre-recorded video over the Internet. F E AT U R E S 1.0 Megapixel (Gross) Advanced HAD™ CCD Imager 1/5" Advanced HAD™ (Hole Accumulation Diode) CCD with 690K (effective) pixels provides excellent detail and clarity, with exceptional video performance (up to 520 lines of horizontal resolution). Realize great looking digital still images utilizing 1000K (effective) pixels. The Megapixel technology enhances your digital videos and digital still photography performance. MiniDV Recording Offers up to 520 lines of horizontal resolution, 3X color bandwidth (vs. VHS) and significantly higher S/N ratio, to provide stunning video performance. 10X Optical/120X Digital Zoom The optical zoom helps to bring the action up close from far away. In addition, the digital zoom interpolation means that extreme digital zooming is clearer, with less distortion than previous types of digital zooms. ➤3.5" Hybrid SwivelScreen™ LCD Display (123K Pixels) Provides excellent viewing clarity with improved resolution. The 123K pixel LCD display makes images sharp and detailed during playback or when monitoring recording. The Hybrid Reflective-Transmissive LCD Screen provides accurate viewing in sunlight or bright light, virtually eliminating the "wash-out" common with traditional LCD Screens. Digital Still Memory Mode with Memory Stick Duo™ Media Capture digital still images at 1152 x 864 or 640 x 480 resolution, directly onto Memory Stick Duo™ media for easy transfer to PC's for emailing, printing, or sharing with other compatible Memory Stick™ devices. Professional Quality Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® Lens Carl Zeiss lenses have an advanced optical multi-layer coating offering less glare and flare with increased contrast. This results in vivid image brilliance, true-to-life color saturation and perfect renditions of subtle tones. Stamina® Battery Power Management System 7 Hours (Using Optional NP-FP90) The Sony DCR-HC65 can continuously record for up to 5 hours or playback for up to 7 hours (with LCD screen off) on a single charge with the optional NP-FP90. Progressive Shutter Mechanical shutter system that provides Progressive Scan performance while utilizing an interlace scanning system. Digital still images will be sharp and clear with excellent definition. Easy Handycam Button Using a camcorder can be intimidating for some people, so with a press of the Easy Handycam button, most of the advanced functions of the camcorder are "locked out" leaving only the buttons essential for recording operational. Super NightShot Plus Infrared System An advanced version of Sony's NightShot® Infrared system that allows users to record natural color images in low-light conditions, but without the blurring common with other lowlight recording systems. Analog To Digital Conversion with Pass-Through Convert and/or record any analog NTSC video source to digital video via the analog inputs. Analog NTSC video can also be passed through the digital Handycam camcorder directly into a PC via the i.LINK® interface in real-time for easy PC editing of your analog footage. Battery Information Battery information is momentarily displayed without having to power on the camcorder. Quickly access the battery's status by pressing the Battery Info button. The Recording Time Available is displayed in minutes on either the LCD screen or in the viewfinder. InfoLithium® Battery with AccuPower™ Meter System Charge the battery at any time because unlike NiCad (Nickel Cadmium) batteries Sony's rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries are not subjected to a life shortening "memory effect". Sony's exclusive AccuPower™ meter displays the battery time remaining in minutes, in the viewfinder or the LCD screen. Super SteadyShot Image Stabilization System An advanced version of Sony's SteadyShot® system that controls an even higher range of shake and vibration frequencies, to achieve an even higher level of smoothness without degradation of video like some other image stabilization systems. i.LINK®* DV Interface (IEEE1394) A high speed bi-directional digital video/audio communication between two compatible devices equipped with an IEEE1394 interface, including camcorders, digital VTRs and PCs. MPEG EX Movie Mode Unlike earlier MPEG1 Movies, MPEG EX Movie Mode will allow you to record uninterrupted to the capacity of the Memory Stick Duo™ Media. These movies are perfect for emailing to friends and family. Picture Package™ Software Easily create fun music videos with the supplied software. ➤ STEP-UP FEATURE
