HVR-V1ESince introduction, the HVR-V1E hasextended the HDV line-up offeringusers additional features such as25p progressive scanning as well as50i interlaced recording.In its compact, lightweight andergonomically designed chassis,the HVR-V1E was the first camcorderto feature advanced technologiessuch as the 3 ClearVid CMOSSensor imaging system – and alsooffers a stunning optical 20x CarlZeiss Vario-Sonnar T* zoom lens.Innovative Technologies and Professional Features3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor Imaging SystemThe HVR-V1E employs a 3-chip ClearVid CMOS Sensor imaging system, which produceshigh-resolution (1920 x 1080) images with rich and natural colours. The combined use of the 3ClearVid CMOS Sensor imaging system and the Enhanced Imaging Processor has enableda most precise interpolation scheme, which concludes within each R, G and B channel. Thisallows a higher resolution for each R, G and B channel than is offered by equivalent-classcamcorders that resort to spatial offset techniques to improve resolution.Unlike CCD sensors, there is no vertical smear in the ClearVid CMOS Sensor when shootinghigh-intensity subjects, further reducing shooting-condition constraints (see diagram below).Enhanced Imaging Processor (EIP)The EIP is an imaging processor that brings out the full power of the 3 ClearVid CMOSSensor imaging system. It handles video data in 1920 x 1080p and 4:2:2 colour space forhigh quality signal processing before recording it to tape in the HDV format 1 . Combineduse of the EIP and 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor imaging system allows the camcorder toprovide extremely high image quality with a high level of gradation and detailed imagereproduction (see image below).1 The HDV recording is in 1440 x 1080i and 4:2:0 colour space.Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* LensThe HVR-V1E is equipped with a high quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens. Thanks to itsmulti-layer coating and extra-low dispersion glass, this lens offers excellent spectralcharacteristics, which result in virtually negligible chromatic aberrations.ClearVid CMOS SensorClearVid CMOS SensorLarger pixel sizeUnique 45° angle pixel layout19
