Introducing the XDCAM Professional Media Station for a Unique Hybrid Workflow and Wide Range of Multi-tasking Operations. Since introducing XDCAM® Professional Disc™ products in 2003, Sony has been supporting smooth migration from tape to tapeless with user-friendly file-based operations. To accelerate operational efficiency, Sony introduced the revolutionary XDCAM EX™ camcorder with SxS® memory cards in 2007. Like the XDCAM Professional Disc products, this new camcorder series adopted MPEG2 Long GOP compression technology. Now, to meet a broad variety of customer application needs, Sony has established a unique hybrid workflow featuring both of these media formats - Professional Disc and SxS card - that share the same compression technology. Sony proudly introduces a powerful new XDCAM family member, the XDCAM Professional Media Station (XDCAM Station) providing a "bridge solution" between Professional Disc media and SxS cards, and featuring large-capacity internal storage (HDD or SSD). By supporting this range of recording media, the XDCAM Station realizes a flexible hybrid workflow and enables high-performance multi-tasking operations. It has the characteristics both of a utility deck, with VTR-like user-interface, and of a high-performance server system in one single unit.
